Going Solo
When I went from a two-up to a solo seat, I noticed that the third hole closest to the seat does not have a nut or nutplate on the back side of the fender. Is this something I need purchase from the dealer? IfI just use a regular nut and bolt then I can't quickly remove the screw to change back to two-up when the wife wants to ride. Thanks in advance.

JUST GO THE DEALER AND BUY A NEW ONE. I JUST DID THE SAME THING FOR WHEN I WANT TO RIDE MINE WITH THE SOLO SEAT. EASY TO INSTALL AND COST A ABOUT THREE BUCKS.

THE BLACK PLUG THAT CAME ON THE BIKE NEW WONT FIT OVER THE NUT. WHAT I DID WAS GOT ANOTHER CHROME SCREW LIKE THE ONE THAT HOLDS THE SEAT DOWN AND PUT IN THE NUT THATS NOT BEING USED. THEY MIGHT MAKE SOME PLUG THAT FITS OVER BUT I'M NOT SURE. I HOPE THIS MAKES SENSE TO YOU.

Yea, that insert is movable, but a pain, technique is covered in the insert instructions. Get another and the trick is to find a custom top to your 1/4" seat screw and the exposed one that match and add a custom finish to the fender.
