hey all , i bought a lepera barebones seat from someone on this forum ... question i have is the seat looks right but on the back where the seat attaches to the fender there is only one hole .... matches up with a black plug but nothing to screw it into .... so am i missing something ? do i need to buy something
Yes you are missing the threaded bung and plastic snap ring. Take the one out of the rear where your old seat mounted and put it where the rubber plug is.
You may be able to get one of these seat nut kits from a dealer like the one above but here is a link also : http://www.motherwellproducts.com/FE...wl-2000-16.htm
There is kind of a trick to putting it on, because of the "no room" between the tier and the fender, I used a long cable tie to string it to --and find the hole, if that makes any sense....
Good luck ,
