Default those with solo seats..

this may be a stupid question, but when u mounted ur seat did u have to remove the fender? did you have to buy hardware? how did you remove the plastic plug, cause i can't move it with my hand. was it a pain to do? i bought a lepera solo seat, but i raelly don't want to go the hassle if i can avoid it. thanx in advance guys.

Default RE: those with solo seats..

Once you remove your seat you should see another hole where the solo should connect, it may have a little black plug in it. Anyway you will have to move the brass threaded insert and move it forward to the solo seat attachment spot. I used a long wire tie that I fed up from under the fender to catch the threaded insert and move it to the new location. Than just put the plug in the rear hole and you should be done. I did mine about 2 months age with no problems. Hope this helps.

Itjust looks like a tight fit to get to it. how did u get the plugout without damaging paint. it seems very tight on it.

Its just plastic you should be able to just get a fingernail under it and pop it out, or if you can get your arm under the fender push it out from under it. I didn't have that much trouble with it.
