weird... so it's just loose? or what? there should be a bar that's enters the circled area on the back of your seat... look in the area I circled on your bike when your cowl is off... there should be a little bracket.
the only way your seat should come off in a wreck is if you busted the plastic in the seat or tweaked the subframe... our seats are pretty solidly mounted. Last edited by Mr Lefty; 04-27-2009 at 10:20 PM.. |

It was damaged when I bought it (underneath) and I got it for 80$ so I wouldn't of really been worried, but yea.. The right side still looks mint..

You gotta get off that bike, son!
It will come... practice in parking lots. That's what I do all the time. It's just hard to find empty ones with good pavement around here...

Read the "How to hang off a bike" thread. Good tips in there.

That's why pictures and videos helped me so much. Try to get one of the instructors (or Mike Kurtz) who has a cam to follow you for a few laps. That shit helped me a ton. Also helped tighten up my lines, which still need some work... Loudon is so damn technical.
