Hi guys. I’m fairly new to owning a Harley and have read a few interesting “how to’s” and reviews on this site already, and as my first post I’m hoping someone can help me?
The seat fender screw on my 2015 FXDF has gotten stuck as the “screw” is not the original, and has bound up in the brass fitting that holds it all together. So I try turning the screw and the whole bushing insert turns as well meaning I can’t remove the seat! Damn this is frustrating to say the least...
So I’m wondering if anyone else may have had this issue and if so, how did you get it off? I’m thinking the only way is to remove the back wheel and jam something tight up into it like a torx bit fitting to hold it so the screw can snap loose again? It’s the only thing I can think of...
TIA guys for any advice given 😁👍
