So, I got a Corbin front seat. Fits fine, I like it....It’s a keeper. As many have found, so I learned from searching old threads, the fit at the rear of the seat is tight whether a rear seat or a Dale’s rack. So now, wondering about my options.
This fit is tight. I can force the rack down and it will latch on one side to hold it down but not both. I don’t like that.... Here is a picture of my seat and rack currently
So, in searching old threads, I found a picture of what one member here did. He cut a portion of the front of the rack off to create space. See below:
So my questions are:
If I modify the rack as seen above, who would you recommend taking it to locally to cut it down to look like a professional job? Welding shop?
Does the seat only latching on one side really matter? Seems to me this is all needed to keep it in place when not loaded and when loaded, I would tie down to the the side racks below the Dale’s rack anyway which would hold the rack down.
Is there another simple solution someone has found to this issue I have overlooked?
Looking for ideas....thanks in advance for your input!
