    Just noticed one of the seat bolt sub-frame inserts has come loose - just spinning in the sub frame/fender hole. Probably me just over tightening it, but it broke free when i loosened it. Anyway - just wondering if anyone has a solid fix? I will start exploring options tonight....

    so it seems superglue works perfect! Actually appears that the factory glues them in too...

    If it happens again, I'd use JB weld.

    We're developing a tool-less quick release seat system for these as we speak.

    +1 that would be a nice addition to a great bike. I hate those seat bolts buried in the grab handles

    It's in the "durability testing phase" right now, we want to make sure that it's going to be good for the long term due to the extensive use of plastics on these bikes.

    Am I being a knucklehead or? Do you mean the threaded insert in the seat pan itself? Don't the seat bolts pass through the subframe and thread into the seat pan/base?
