Anyone have they're seat come apart?

Ok, latest problem, all the staples on the leading edge of my seat (08 XB12-R) came loose. Showed it to the dealer, they ordered me a new one instantly. The new seat has 2 rows of staples as opposed to 1 row on the original. I was told the new seat has an updated part No. so I can't be the only one. Check out your seats, hopefully Buell will replace it if you have a prob. Wayne

my guess is if its wrapped like your first one, it'll probably do it again. I just removed the loosened staples and ride.
