How to remove rubber bumpers under seat ...
« on: September 21, 2010, 08:42:34 PM »
This is for my 2009 Fat Bob:

I removed the stock seat to install my new Corbin solo saddle and I am unsure how to remove the "stock" rubber bumpers without effing up the paint. They are glued on pretty solid. Any suggestions?

Thanks!!
Scott

Try some W-D 40 and let it soak in for a few hours. Then use some fishing line to get under it. :2vrolijk_21:

They don't call it "anal floss" for nothing... but that's only what I've heard. :nixweiss: :huepfenlol2:
