Default Covering up holes in Sporty rear fender
I am changing out the stock seat in my 07 1200 sportster to a solo seat. Any creative ideas for covering up the holes from the old seat other than the bib that Harley sells?

Thanks
Frank

When I changed my stock 2-up for a solo seat there was a black plug with the Harley shield on it in the solo seat mounting hole. I mounted the new seat and stuck the plug in the other hole. I believe you can get them in chrome as well.

Thumbs up
Plastic or chrome plugs, OR, a Mustang fender bib. I have one on mine and it looks great. Ride safe.
