Just got a Corbin saddle and pillion. Since we decided to keep the America, my wife wanted a better pillion experience. My bike came to me with the touring seat which has the spring release mechanism that latches around the pin at about midships (like the gunfighter seat I assume).

I get that I need to remove the stud (shown on the left in photo above) and I assume there I will find a nut plate under it for a seat bolt like the one at the back of the touring seat? I have never see the stock saddle and pillion setup, any guidance would be appreciated.


Thom I might be wrong, I sometimes am.
