Baghira seat mounting

[HestonsRightNut]

Hi all,

I recently picked-up a 2001 Baghira and am having trouble locating some of the seat mounting hardware.

The folks at Grahams Motorcycles (Taunton) are out-of-stock and I may have to resort to fabricating something up.

Could someone share pics and/or ideas on alternatives for items 5, 6, and 7 in the below image?

Let me get this right, #5 is the sleeve through the seat, #6 and 7 are the washer and spacer to hold the sleeve in the seat. Are these the parts you need? A proper diameter piece of stainless steel or copper tubing cut and flared while installed in the seat should fix the problem. If its # 26&27, The seat "bolt" I found them on the wall at my local Japanese motorcycle dealership among all the other fasteners.
Good luck and enjoy the bike.

Yep, these are the spacers that appear to go through the seat (I've already bought a set of replacement dzus fasteners). I'm going to first try this sleeve washer (http://www.mcmaster.com/#93762a200/=zgi35f) and a spacer. Failing that, I'll go with the flared tubing suggestion.

Thanks much for the reply!
