Think it looks comfortable, but a long ride will let you know. My personal taste pc would leave it as is and even get rid of the studs. But it looks good, I would like some pictures of the actual mounting.

- July 20, 2014, 17:44:14 PMHi-
new owner of a 2005 800
came with dual seat, bags, rack, sisst bar. really want to see that swoopy rear fender!
used solo seats are far and few between , and new are ~$400-500 corbin, stock etc
so until I find one, this is what I came up with-
Harbor Freight rolling motorcycle seat SKU 04435, not available online, store only.
It almost fits,(its a little too wide for the stock seat mount) so had to make an attachment bracket and a rear seat support bar. Took a half day and about $ 10 worth of hardware. made all parts in my home shop, a drill press and belt sander were handy. The seat has 4 threaded holes in the seat pan.
see attached photos
