Still a newbi here.  I pick up my brand new 08 Midnight on Saturday.  I just thought of a question. 

 I've never seen the bike in person.  Just in pictures on the internet.  It looks like the factory seat is two pieces.  If my assumptions are correct, does the rear passenger seat come off?  I like the look of the single seat.  I don't carry passengers on my bikes very often, so I was wondering if the rear portion of the seat is removeable, and if so are there any holes or markings where the rear seat mounts? 

If that statement isn't clear, basically what I'm asking is if the rear seat is removeable, does it look clean?  Or does it look like there is a missing piece?

Yes the rear seat ir removable and yes there are a couple of holes from the bracket once removed.....get some of those plastic atumotive interior plugs from Pepboys or Kragen and you're set.

Yes the rear comes off. and there are some bolts in the fender and a loop as well I beleive depending on seat. welcome to the gang.
