The trick to keeping your saddle adjustment the same when you remove and replace the same saddle is to only loosen the rear bolt. You don't have to remove the rear bolt, just loosen it enough that you can rotate the rear top clamp 90° and then tilt the nose of the saddle down to rotate the front top clamp 90° too.
