Hi there, don’t know who is listening, but I bought a Black Widow, and after several problemws, I LOVE the bike (starter issues, handlebars, neutral switch). I only have a seat issue to deal with. The stock seat has a tongue up front and two bolts (one on each side to the frame). I am too short for the forward controls. Bought new handlebars, then noticed I could move the tongue and bolt the seat to two up-front holes in the frame. Now I am a bit too high. Doe anybody know who makes a seat rfor this thing that will fit my mounting holes and furthermore, perhaps have something lowere like LePera and further forward?? Thanks in advance for ANY help I can get, becuase I am sure something standard Harley fits this frame.

Here’s a photo of one installed on a Banshee. They are $295. If you want one let me know and I’ll have one made for you.
Attachments:loop-single-reply.phpMarch 7, 2012 at 8:25 am #2734I WANT ONE! Again, I moved the seat forward by one extra hole that was on the frame on each side. Now my feet hit the controls, but I am up a bit higher and my feet dont sit flat on the ground. In the photos you can see seat forward, and arrows showing thwhere the VEE should follow the frame downward and paralell topwards the rear end, and that the V should therefore be deeper and go back up sooner, for the “push.” Less padding on the front end, but OK with me! I can be reached for discussion and/or payment at:

loop-single-reply.phpMarch 14, 2012 at 7:55 am #2736Yes if you have a swing-arm mounted fender. Its the same as the Banshee and Widow.
