Seat Release Bypass 2 Years, 11 Months ago  
--

I ordered and received a wire and ring to install as a backup for my R* seat. It works great. I want to get another but I can't find out who makes them. Anybody know? I think it was someone on this site.

Be inventive. Not that much to it, really.

I did make my own, but the one this other member made, which I use on another bike, works better. It's like Erbman's wires. Sure, you can make your own, but will they be better? Is it worth saving a few dollars?

I used a rubber coated copper wire (14ga Romex Electrical Wiring) and a large fish swivel. Works perfect.
