Default Normal for Lepera??

Put the Bare Bones on and im wondering if the fit should be a concern. have 2 issues that has me wondering.

1st- the rear mounting bracket sits bout 1/4"-1/2" above the fender. I have to press down fairly hard on the back of the seat in order to screw it down.

2nd- in the front where the seat has the "bar" that tucks into the neck of the bike, there is a good bit of side-side play/movement in the seat.

Any input or advise would be great... thanks

the seat is the LK-007 just to clarify its the correct seat for the bike

Mine was popped up a little in the back when I first put it on, but I'm sure its because the foam and vinyl are new and not formed to resting in the front of the tank.

As for the side to side movement, make sure the tab is all of the way into the frame....mine was very hard to get in at first, but it is rock solid with no movement.
