    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Dumb question: seat bracket/gas tank/grommet order?

Silly question but when I took my seat apart initially I didn't really note in which order the gas tank flange, rubber grommets, and seat bracket go when bolting them down to the frame. Can't seem to find a picture in my manuals either.
 
I have a 78 1000 & if it is the same as mine it goes from the back to the front with the washer under the head of the bolt then the grommet fits into the the hole for the gas tank mount underneath the the mounting bolt. Hope that helps some.
 
Well I guess I'm still a little unclear. Can anybody give me something like:

From top to bottom:
Bolts
Washers (on the bolt)
Grommets ("bushings" a better word?)
Gas tank flange (two bolt holes)
Seat bracket (two bolt holes)

...but in the correct order of course. ;-)

I have an aftermarket seat but I assume the stock seats have a similar type of bracket that bolts on those same two bolts. It has a lip which another bracket on the seat fits under.
 
Does this help?

Well that does help. Duh, I could have checked the fiche. ;-) But it still doesn't show where the seat bracket fits.

Looks like I might be missing the flat cushions in the back...
