Yes, but I think they are also supposed to protect the paint/fender. I think I will just cut them smaller so that they will still protect the area where the nut will sit, but won't be as visible anymore.
Once the seat is on, they're not visible... or shouldn't be.

My thoughts exactly. And I see no reason to remove them. I've put rubber nubbins on them before, I had a Softail with a Saddleman seat, and the ends dug into the bottom a bit.

Real nice Andy, a a good look for your bike. I have had my eye on that seat too. I am hoping to get an old tractor type seat, but man, it looks like a lot more mods to be done for it. Thanks for posting the pictures.

Thank you! The price was right. I was hoping to go a bit more "vintage" as well, but as you said, there is more involved and I need $$ for many other mods to come
Truthfully- so far I find the seat pretty comfortable as well.
