It doesn't mount to the seat....It mounts to the bike. There's a bolt with a washer under where the mounts on the bike.

I just installed a new sundowner on mine. I left the grab strap off.

Hopes this helps.

Yep, strap bolts to the fender (hole under the small plastic plug).
I ride solo with a Corbin Classic solo, but have the original solo seat with pillion for ocassional 2up. I was able to mount the strap to the buttom of the seat.
