03 Sporty Solo Seat

Got a 03 Sporty XL Sport model and looking to put on a Mustang Solo seat. My concern is if it will bolt on. to the existing mount on the fender. Seems the seat may be too short. Thanks

Tony, if you buy a Mustang seat for your model it will of course bolt on! Check their website for the correct model and part number. Why do you have doubts?

The stock one has a passenger seat, of course, and thinking the single seat isn't as long so the bracket on back won't reach the mount. It's an ebay item with no returns is my concern. Thanks for the reply

My rear fender has two mounting holes. Check under your seat. It's easy to get it off. You should have a blanking plug for the unused hole.
