Well, my mod is probabl exactly what you need. You can swap the seats by removing from the frame the four screws that fixes the seat supports only.

My winter plan is to put a sprung single seat on, but leaving me the possibility to put back on the oem 2up seat (my wife loves to ride wide me ::)).
The matter is: how to do it without removing the bracket, as far as my Drifter's got two new rear bars that bolt on it and I'd like to let them on (btw, pic is comin' soon...).
I'm thinkin' about mountin' the OEM single seat brackets (just to bolt the rear bars) and add some kind of stuff like Darth Wraith's mod, in order to keep the two brackets joint togheter, but I don't know how much light it has to get from the rear fender.
Any suggestion from all of you would be really appreciated... :)
Thanx

I put back the 2-seat, I had a passenger...

It's made from raw steel, actually the opening was not enough for the fender up movements ( we have bad roads, it was necessary to install progressive springs in front), so I cut more from it. I think I could simplify the thing, to leave only the spring support, but the initial plan was for a very strong "basement"... :))

Thanx Darth Wraith, for your time.  :)
Hope not to bore you, but I'd like to know what kind of bracket is the big black one I see attached to the back of the two springs: oem or homemade? Since that my Baby has got a two up seat, I've never seen that kind of bracket... :o

Really COOL Drifter!
That's exactly the way I'd like to paint mine :)
By the way, as far as I can see, you've fitted a single sprung seat by leavin' on the original one's brackets (just like the mod I'm gonna try...). Could you please give some more infos and (even more appreciated) pics of that mod?
Thanx since now and ride with pride. 8)
