Don't know what washers you are talking about. I didn't need to add any washers.

On mine... 12 years ago... the seat has a flat plate on the front. That has to fit under the large washer on the bike. Mine wouldn't fit closely enough to allow the L brackets to match the frame holes on the rear.

On mine, I simply took off the washer, ground a bit off, reinstalled and the seat fit nicely - though a bit snug, under it. Over the years, it has gotten a LOT easier to install. The parts apparently grew to like each other.

Thanks Chief! About how much did you have to take off?

not much... you just want enough to let the bracket fit under it.. take a bit, try it repeat. As noted it will be tough at first...


Now remember this was 12 years ago. It may be a lot easier now... try it before you start "fixing" stuff.
