New to Buell/this forum. I just purchased a 98 S1W with a twin tail section. Waiting on delivery of the bike right now but pretty sure I want to switch it to a regular single seat/tail section. Is this simply bolt on/off?anybody have a seat/section in black to sell or interested in buying the twin tail section with twin Corbin seat? License plate/ light bracket broken from Vandals on it. Anybody know a good source for parts ? I'm located in S Florida. Any help/info is appreciated. Thx

Yes, the tailsection bolts on and off easily. It's actually the easiest system I've ever seen. On the underside of the tailsection, above the rear tire, you'll see a big round silver flathead "screw" that it best turned with a quarter (pocket change). Counter-clock on that, it'll fall out, and the seat should slide back and off nice and easy. After that, you'll be able to see the very few bolts that hold the bodywork on.

I've got a twintail on mine as well, and as far as I can figure, you'll have to have the single-piece bodywork, the seat, and the taillight-mount-bracket from a solo seat S1 to make it happen. The bracket that mounts the taillight/signals is different from the solo to the twintail.

American Sport Bike is the place to go for parts and accessories.

I'm interested in buying a used twin tail and seat, depending on how much you need for them...
