I was wondering if there is only those two screws in the seat compartment to remove and the seat come off?

or is there more to it?

thanks

There are 2 or 3 bolts in the back that hold it down. But you must also remove the plastic cover that holds the ignition switch. The seat/tank will slide out relatively easy. It's the sliding back in that tends to be a bitch.

i have a 02-500cc sled i just took off my seat to change it out for a 13 gallon clear tank. there are 2 screws in the back storage compartment.and you have to lift the back of the seat up to unplug the rear lights under the seat . take off the top plastic that holds the key. on the top left of the tank there is a breather line also the fuel line in the front needs to be removed.

so I have to take the gas tank off too?

I can't just remove the seat?

The fuel tank and seat base are one unit. The seat cover covers the pad and attaches to the base.

that sucks..I like my seat on my firecat, one screw and it is off. But anyways, its cause my friend had alittle jug of oil in the trunk and it leaked all over and he needs to take the seat off to clean it up.
But if you have to remove the whole gas tank too then.....

why not just fill the compartment with rags, that should get rid of most of it. Later Darren

Just remove the nuts from the two studs which are in the trunk and he can lift the rear of the seat enough to reach under and whip up the mess. No problem, 5 minutes max. and he'll be good to go.
