Hey Wildman, I didn't do the sewing I took the seat and the skirt to an auto upholstery shop. The rest was simple bolt on.

Can you put a passenger pillion on there if need be? I like the springer seat set up!

A pillion will still bolt up but you have to use the newer style that bolts to the fender.

I don't recall who made the post but it was a bolt on. I think I remember seeing them in Custom Chrome's catalog. I got it off of EBay. I no longer have that bike so I really can't give you any more details. My 2006 was replaced by a 92. I never liked all the electronic crap.
