Seat Question (Read 161 times)

sailorcolin Junior Member Offline Building a street tracker! Posts: 77 Rock Hill, SC Gender:	Seat Question 04/22/14 at 08:02:34 I have a 99. It needs a new seat. I like the newer seat designs that are one piece. Will those fit my bike? If not at which year do the seat change fitment, im assuming that the mounts change if they change at all.

Whereas the 2 piece have a hook and loop. not sure if the loop on the fender interferes with the 1 piece seats. but may be bent down or cut off to accommodate.

His fell out, he never replaced it ,never missed it.

I do enjoy the way the stock sportster seat looks. With the rounded passenger section almost cafe like.

It was a pain to get to and it started stripping because of that, so I just left it out. no problems so far. you might put a piece of rubber or something where the metal meets the fender though.
