Just figured I would remind everyone to always tighten their seat latch because I stood up on the highway to stretch and my seat flew off, almost taking out the rider behind me. I went back and picked up the seat and its all torn up on one side. BTW, does anyone have a seat for a 2000 M2 that they wanna get rid of?

Hey cheese man, if you've got the seat pan, why not get it re-covered, your sure to save cubic dollars.
Unless of course it's not salvageable...that would suck,buenos suerte dude!

I forgot to screw mine back on once, and i hit a bump and me and the seat moved about 8 inches backwards. Talk about a pucker moment.

I got a M2L and a I think's it's called a Buell pro series seat. Let me know what ya think it's worth to you. The low is a bit stiffer the pro is much more thicker.

The Pro series seat is different than a low seat. Its a very comfy seat though, i highly recomend them

Got a stocker and a Corbin, the cobin has orange piping and spider webs stiched into the seating area.

I know the corbin has a few small tears in it and I think the stocker may have a scuff but I am not 100%

Im sure that the stock seat is salvageable, I just figured it would be about the same price on EBAY to get a used seat. Plus my bike came with the low seat so I think I want to try the regular one and as the low got somewhat uncomfortable after a while.

I noticed when I removed the composite washer from between the butterfly screw and the steel strap on the frame it goes through, my seat never gets loose anymore.

All you guys with seats are Badweb coolness. Now let's tell Him how much you want for that precious tuber part, versus re-upholstering!
How much are you willing to sacrifice for your brother Badwebber?
I'm asking this because I was told that my X1 seat (in perfect condition) was worth no more than 15 dollars!

Now that's badweb brotherhood! I'm truly impressed.
And as a matter of fact it's exactly what I was fishing for in the first place.
Thanks for your generosity.
