Reply To: GV125c Aquila single seat conversion & rack
Hey!
I see the why you want the rack to stay there , looks nice as a solo seat mod too!
I think you want to keep the metal plate that locks the main rider seat — I see the metal rear rack is a bit too wide to catch the 2 main bolts but it’s okay….
Get 6x m6 penny washers. 3x per side. And get 2 m6 bolts not too long and 2 m6 nuts for the under side of the plastic.
The 2x washers act as spacers under the rack , drill a hole thru the metal rack, then screw a bolt with a penny washer on top.
Now you have 4 bolts across holding it down.
To hide the area , hmmm , how about get a thick strip of leather or similar that’s weather resistant like the seat. Cut around it and glue it down ?
I don’t have a spare seat for your upholstorer to remodel it but , they can always remodle your seat to have a bit more extension to the back (assuming the pillion seat won’t return anytime soon!)
