[QUOTE="jackson409, post: 60833, member: 381"] Well not today but Sunday. I broke one of my seat brackets on my last ride, so instead of buying a new seat, I took the Idea off the KTM65sx my son used to have and installed/made a seat pin for quick removal. I got a 5/16 clevis pin, a D-ring, two 5/16 washers, barrel pin, 5/16 flat fender washer and cotter pin. I drilled a 5/16 hole through my seat and fender. Then installed the D-ring onto the clevis, then washer and pushed it through the seat, put barrel pin on the bottom to hold on the seat. I cut off the excess clevis pushed through the fender and installed the fender washer and cotter key. Bamm,,, I can pull out the cotter key and have my seat off in 10 seconds or less with no tools. I am really digging this, no more looking for that damn allen wrench. :prof: I am going to do this on Clay's YZ85 too. I will do a more detailed "How To" when I do the YZ in case anyone else might be interested.
