Is it worth the hassle? You can get them from AF1 for $15:

Is it worth the hassle and postage from USA when Redratbike from the ApriliaPerformance Forum produces them and will sell you a set for £10 delivered.

...... wonder what Will can knock them out for .......

will does seem very adept at knocking a quick one off... is Mrs Will happy with that I ask myself?

I made myself a set of these years ago for about 2 quids worth of stuff from a hardware shop and about half an hour of my time.

They've paid for themselves many times over in the time and effort saved taking the seat off.

Yeah - I've had them on my bike for years too.

Bought from RSVR.net .... when RSVR.net were still trading ....

I'm happy with mine, they work really well (provided you set the height right initially), I just couldn't be bothered to make my own so got the AF1 ones.

Does anyone have a couple of hitch pins lying around, have tried Redratbike but there's non on the go at the mo so thought i'd knock a couple up myself but you can only buy these things in huge assorted boxes and i only need two...please...pretty please???

I used 'R' clips (bought 4 just in case) and bent the round ends up a bit to make them easier to get on and off. Didn't bother with lanyards and not lost a any yet.

Even if I lose one or both the seat isnt going anywhere with my fat arse on it until I buy more.

If anyone has the dimensions of them I can knock them up on my lathe and pillar drill for about £10 a set delivered (UK), PM me if you have sizes or want some
