OK, here's the deal. My newspeedmaster.com solo seat just arrived yesterday. While I can't wait to put it on, I must tell you that I bought the bike with the gunfighter seat, which means that I don't have a solo seat bolt.

I'm putting in an order to Brent for the fancy bolt and some extra minty things, but until my mints come, I'd like to just make a hardware store run and pick up a bolt that fits. To make things easier, does anyone know what size of bolt will fit into the hole?

It's M8 Mark. You can also buy a solo seat bolt (in polished stainless) from me. See my ebay listing and give me a shout if you're interested. Regards. John

Thanks Benny, but when I got my low profile seat, he actually sent me Brent's slotted solo seat. Thanks schwartzkm!

So I put 200 miles on the new seat yesterday and I noticed an improvement over the gunfighter seat. Looks darn good too if I may say so myself.

Just send me a PM... Or gimme a ring. I'll be around, and if the weather is good I'll probably ride each day, so last minute is cool.
