Seat strap
OK I did a search and could not find anything.
I have a 09 Dyna Low Rider.
Heres the questions. What do you do to secure the strap on the stock seat? It is a pain. Any trick? Does it have to be bolted to the frame? Can you just leave it off? I'm asking because I like to take my seat off to clean the bike. Kills my hands getting the seat off and on. Just no room.

If the '09 is like the '06 it attaches to the fender.
First step is to make sure you use the proper holes (my Sundowner had a couple options so I used the holes indicated in the instructions.
Attach strap to fender.
Slide back of seat through strap, and
Move seat on its side to the left side of bike (shifter side), and
Manuever seat back while turning seat to proper upright position.
Not too difficult a procedure.
The process is somewhat like a fat chick squirming into a girdle (or so I've been told).

+1 on that. Took the box my Tallboy seat came in and threw the strap back in it and the one from the stock 2-up seat. Until there's an easier way to remove and install them to swap seats, they'll stay in the box.

I don't have the strap anymore, just didn't look right on my sundowner.... but I had no problem in getting the seat on and off with the strap on. Pretty similar procedure to what Sammi described.
