As an option to $18.00 plus fancy seatbolts people are making a killing on, I did the following. Went to my local auto parts store and bought two 6X60 metric (10mm head) bolts and two nuts. (He ordered a box for the store)
Not real pretty but wait...put the nut all the on the bolt for spacing purposes and then put it in and tighten it down into the seat bolt hole. The bolt sticks out just as far as the fancy stainless jobs and I luckily found two black vinyl end caps to hide the head. Looks like it was made that way and I can easily remove the bolt with the 10mm socket (or pliers in an emergency) Total cost= .70 cents LOL Hope it helps ya out! Ride Safe! :cool:
