Under the panel above the battery, which is under the seat

Did you ever get this figured out? I have same problem on '04 V Star 1100. Started to take off from a stop sign and everything went dead. Found fuse under seat, it's good; battery is good, put on charger anyway... NOTHING electrical works when you turn on the key. HELP?!

Hello
1)Engage the kickstand and ensure the Yamaha is securely standing. Examine the front part of the seat, closest to the speedometer. You'll find a bolt.
2)Remove the front bolt with a 10-mm socket wrench. This unhooks the front part of the seat assembly. Move to the rear part of the seat.
3)Examine the rear part of the seat to find the 5-mm Allen bolt. Remove it with the Allen wrench.
4)Grasp each side of the seat and simultaneously lift it upward and backward to remove it from the Yamaha 1100.
I hope it helps. Don't forget to rate.
Thanks

the mustang seats, do they have different mounting points, is that why they do not fit? If the seat fits on the bike, then mabey you can adjust the mounting points by making up some brackects to bolt to.

Should be a bolt behind the rear seat going into the fender and maybe between the 2 seats.

is this just the seat itself or the seat cover? if its the seat assembly there should be 2 bolts holding the seat down located somewhere around the rear of the seat aprox 2 inches below the seat. if your talking about the seat cover you have to remove the staples thats holding the fabric down to the seat pan.
