I lost the screw for the seat on my S1! Anyone have a source? I have an after market single seat. Not sure of the make but I am hoping the seat screw is the same.

This is the sorce but not a good way to get them

I believe their legnth made them a custom order..

I have a hand full but they are shorter. If someone could take a pic and give me measurements I could have these extended

Once you get the new one stick a large E-clip (or similar) to keep it from falling into the road if it vibrates loose again.

Thanks everyone for all the help. It maybe asking a lot but if anyone has one of these screws perhaps they can take a photo of it next to a measuring tape or ruler; I would sure appreciate it.

Thanks, S1 owner. Jim2 does mention the length but I didn't see the diameter mentioned. I wanted the photo to show to the person at the fastener shop. The visual may help them find a replacement. The link to Southco shows some examples but none of them seem to match what I remember the screw looks like. That being said my memory is kinda selective in many things...

Under the head it's 36 millimeters
Total length is 53 millimeters
Between the head and threads are 20 millimeters.
