have a mustang solo with backrest ,4-5 years old. love the seat but noticed, two cracks on the seat pan and some rust about a half an inch long. its where the cup for the backrest ties into the seat pan (i think)..do you think mustang would replace the pan or any ideas what i should do? iam afraid to ride on it like it is.

 

What should you do? It's time to buy a new seat.

 

Yep that about covers it

 

Once a year I rub on the leather lotion, the seat 5 years old with 72K miles, if it's cracking, your done.

 

Time to spend some money.

 

I would call Mustang and ask them about it. If they won't replace it on their dime I'm sure they can give you a good price on replacing the pan. I had them recover my solo and passenger seats and the price wasn't to bad, they came back looking like new.

 

if you are talking about the metal seat pan drill out the rivets peel the hide back and get it mig welded. should take 15 min. and maybe 20$ for the welder recover and ride!
