Title: 2 up seat and hardware
Post by: speed1969racer on June 22, 2014, 03:37:37 AM
Bucko or anyone else,

I have recently bought a Kaw 2-up seat and rear seat hand rail independently and they didn't come with hardware.   But I am not sure what I need from a hardware to use to swap with my solo seat (2001).

I would like to go back and forth with my seats does anyone have a picture of the brackets required?  I have seen a bracket on this site I can make but I am not sure if that is what I need.

thanks in advance Eric

you need the elusive horse shoe bracket.   It's listed on the OEM parts drawing in the Battery Case drawing

OK, this page is really talking about the saddle bags setup, but it shows my solo and 2up setup without the seat on, so all the bracketry is there in place.  To add the hand rail you'd bolt it to the four rearmost holes on the horseshoe bracket, 2 per side.  You'll also need the two triangular brackets on the bottom of your current solo seat and just bolt them to the bottom of the 2up.  http://www.vulcandrifterriders.com/oemsbsetup.html

Greenbarn.....it's funny that the horseshoe bracket is shown with the battery parts on a 1999.  I thought it'd be shown with the seat parts.  On the 2001 it's shown with optional parts, as you'd expect: http://www.ronayers.com/Optional-Parts-C358587.aspx
