Default Cop Seat

How hard would it be to put a cop seat on a U/C?

Would it work?

The one I'm referring to is the single seat with the springs.

Default RE: Cop Seat

The Current Cop seat uses a Air Spring.

You can normally purchase the complet "kit" on ebay of $100 - $150.

Have not personally made the conversion, but if you have all the parts, a service manual and Cop Bike Cupplement, should be a do-able weekend project.

The Air Spring is a great combination.

Default RE: Cop Seat

Cache, did the opposite took off cop seat and put on custom. Should be no problem air bag threads to battery box probably the only problem. Air cannister can be mounted in saddlebag. I put the cop seat back on occasionaly just for a change. It sits way high, changes the positioning of the windsreen and bars.

I removed the cop seat from my Roadking.I didn't like sitting so high and it raised the center of gravity making it less nimble in turns.It's not a complicated setup.You should have no problem installing it.
