Mick,

I finally got a sport seat with cowl.

The locking pin on the seat is back about 1ā€ from the lock mechanism on the frame and the pin needs to be rotated around. It looks like I can make a steel plate to move the pin forward without too much trouble.

Am I missing some easier way to install it?

Do the sport seats not have the two side catches, the ā€œLā€ shaped brackets that come down and hook onto the bike frame cross support?

My bike is a 1995 Thunderbird, not sure what year the seat is for only that it is new and it has the locking pin.

I do not want to modify the bike catch as I want to still be able to use the stock seat.

Thanks,

Matt
