It's easy. Couple screws and done. Also, my seat nearly touches the fender (lowered bike) when it is idle. It does make slight contact with the seat. You can feel it on your butt when it touches. Seat flexes with the contact. No harm.

yesterday 90 degrees today 60 degrees and 30 mph winds tommorow the same but i still rode. the seat feels much better than the stock seat you actually sit in the bike now. It does sit close to the fender and kinda worried about that but when i rode today the seat didnt touch the fender and i hit some good bumps.. im sure it does hit but the seat has a soft bottom and leather so dont think it will hurt the fender.. i may put clear plastic on the fender to just be sure.. i am sure it wont damage the fender so thats the good news (bend it) and mike see how much faster blue bikes are with this seat on it LOL

Man that looks great and really closes the gap.
I've been thinking about ordering one but my only hesitation and question is; will the saddle bag mounts work with this seat? Has anyone put the two together yet?

wow, bike's not lowered huh?!! that thing really closes the gap. you know, at first i didn't mind having the gap between the seat and the rear fender, but now i can't stand it.
i can't wait to get my seat. hopefully this transaction will go smoother then the rest of the things i've ordered for the bike lately.
