So have any of you addressed all the noise that comes from the back seat fitting so loosely?

I put a Buell tail bag on mine and it stopped the noise.

Get a relatively thick piece of foam tape, place on underside of seat. Tada. KISS

Bryan, That's actually what I was thinking. I just wanted to see what others had done.

Thank you...

As a side note, I also have the tail bag - it's usually on (works to eliminate rattle), and I've often got too much stuff crammed into the trunk (also eliminates rattle). I've noticed since I switched my plastics to the XB12R black that the seat requires more effort to latch (it will not latch itself if dropped like it used to), and doesn't rattle even if none of the three conditions are present. -=shrugs=-

Hmm. I thought it was possible to adjust the latch. Mine hasn't made any noise.
Mike.
