Springer seat question...

Sure...it's a bit embarrassing, but really..."if you don't ask..." lol...

SO...I've very recently picked up this beautiful 98 Springer...and with no Springer experience (have rode Electra Glides/Road Kings for years...as well as a Yamaha Road Star...that just required a turn of the ignition key which released the seat) I'm not used to accessing/removing the seat on these babies...

The simple question is "how the heck do you remove the seat!!"

Cheers!

Craig.

There is a bolt under the front of the seat, take it out and pull the seat off, the springs will stay on.
