Re: One Piece Seat

I have been contemplating making a custom seat for mine that is a one piece using the same seat pans and just joining them with a piece of steel and recovering both. and instead of using the setup that is there now for the bolt down area use either a smaller bolt that can drop through the bottom or drill the hole out and use a carriage bolt built into the seat and a bolt on the bottom.how ever I had an idea of getting a secondary lock mechanism from the front seat and retrofitting a joint in the back as well with the same snap in and lock method so that you didn't lose the access to storage or in my case the easiest method of air filter removal for cleaning, as I have a created a new air filter assembly for my bike to let it breath as easy as it wants. the alternative idea was to use a bike quick release bolt for the front tires and a slotted seat. Maybe these Ideas can help you as I haven't gotten to the actual fabrication part yet.
