Well how stupid do I feel now! Liberator, I'm glad I wasn't the only person thinking it was all going wrong.
Guys you were all correct all I needed to do was push forward hard and have my buddy put a little extra weight on it to hold it.
She's sitting nice and snug and I took her for a spin around the block and I IMMEDIATELY noticed a difference in the ride quality!!! I'm cleaning my Wimmer intake filter today so I'll go on a nice long ride later when its dried out.
I can't wait!!!!!

I had the same problem when I got my Mustang. I just used an Allen as a lever to line it up right (in case you have to take it off and go through that again). I also got the pillion and backrest for the lady. The lower back support is fantastic. Expensive? Absolutely. Worth it? I think so.

I didn't think is was that expensive. I just put mine on last week and was finally able to take it for a ride for the first time this morning (due to working ALOT). Worth every friggin penny I paid for it. Love the fact that the pillion makes a backrest. Felt great after the ride, by far the best money spent on the bike. I gotta admit, I was doing a little cussing myself while installing it though.

Glad you got it worked out, looks good on your bike.
Read this with interest because I'm just about to order a Mustang pillow seat for my Night Train. I could deal with the initial installation being a little frustrating, but if I thought it was always going to be tough getting it on and off I might change my mind.
