Seat for the Springer
« on: August 16, 2007, 02:42:03 PM »
Has anyone found a seat to fit the Springer? I have ordered 3 seats and only one fit but was way too oversized. I'm looking for a little more cushion for the passenger nothing more. My wife keeps complaining.

I thought I posted this yesterday but it's not up
I have a 2007 springer as well and have 2 extra seats I've picked up
First was a 2007 Sundowner from the Dealer - goes in in 15 seconds for the wifes tender butt
Second was a used seat off Ebay from a 2006 Night train that I cut down and had recovered in Brown Natural unfinished leather - looks like an old baseball glove - I'll get a pic of it up pretty soon - looks cool
Both are just stand issue HD 200MM rear tire seats and go on without any issues
good luck

How about a Corbin Classic Solo with Passenger Pillion? It would only take a few minutes to convert from solo seat to dual seating and aesthetically it still would look good. Has anybody tried this set-up on the CVO Springer? Here's a link: http://www.corbin.com/harley/softail/hdst6cs.shtml

I saw those too but didn't want to put the other seat nut on ---the Sprngr only comes with the one nut just behind the pass section and is plugged for a second one behind the rider
It would be pretty easy to though if you wanted to

I put the Softail Cust sissy bar on - but passed on the King/Queen seat
I like the look of the rounded bar but not keen on the Giant seat

Beerman,

I copied your idea and took it one step further....

HD makes a small backrest pad for the softail custom sissybar, It looks good on mine and finishes off the sissybar! :2vrolijk_21:

I used the softail sissybar and the retro king/queen seat looks great
but not much padding,I will probably buy the stock softtail custom seat for longer rides.

The Corbin Rumble seat works well.

So my wife really wanted some sort of sissy bar, but I didn't want to cover up the fenders too much so I bought this ... She complains about the padding too ... thinking about getting her and me some of those propad gel things ... neighbor has one on his ultra and he likes it.
