1. Looking for the denoid plug. 2. Looking for the pins that eliminate the screws for the front seat. I would like to get both from the same shop! |

Seat pins are an American sportbike exclusive as far as I know. I don't know if the sell the de-noid plug there or not. |

And I just installed the pins last night. Absolutely required with the comfort seat if you ask me. I couldn't even get both stock screws started, and I'm sure I'd strip out those inserts within ten seat remove/replace cycles. Highly recommended! KeS BTW - the instructions have angle recommendations for the stock seat and for a Corbin. For the comfort seat, I found putting the tapered holes at about 10 degrees outward from straight back worked very well. |

Any HD dealer has the bypass resistor in the Buell catalog for 6-8 bucks ordered mine last week (Message edited by averagejoe on October 27, 2009) |

A 120ohm, 2watt resistor from Radio Shack does the same thing. ac |

yes but for 8 bucks think a nice dummy plug is well worth it. |

Wrong36, that's the one - American Sport Bike confirmed that for me yesterday before I placed my order for the plug and the seat release pins. Mike |

"I'm sure I'd strip out those inserts within ten seat remove/replace cycles." Been there, done that. I switched to the American Sport Bike pins and like them very much. And VERY handy when visiting the dyno, because no tools are then required to reach the rear spark plug for attachment to the dyno. |

While the American Sport Bike solution for the seat is clever, there's a cheaper/local solution that may work for many of you as well. Purchase a 1/4" by 3/4" or 1-inch hitch pin. Available your local hardware store for $2-$5 each. A hitch pin is a pin with a ball bearing at the end to hold it in place and a ring at the top for easy pulling. Using a 1/4" drill bit and a little bit of lubricant, slowly drill out the seat nut fasteners (they are soft brass). Use your hitch pins to fasten your seat in place. Works great. |

Interesting idea Jdugger. Take it a step further; flip the hitch pin, thread it for the frame inserts, then the seat is push-on/pull-off. Hmmm, new garage project... Z |

I'm kind of tempted to just use rare earth magnets. |
