Default What kind of Seat is this?

Howdy,
I'm trying to fit this seat to my 2003 Softail and I can't find a bracket that fits.
I've tried to use a universal bracket off ebay and this kit but they don't fit.
http://www.vtwinmfg.com/webapp/wcs/s...102_3304409_-1

I got this off Ebay and the Seller is of no use.

Thanks for any help or advice.







Bracket won't fit down into grove of seat horn




too cool of a seat not to use

I want to say that the logo under the seat is an older Arlen Ness logo. I could be wrong though but it sure looks like one of his. He probably had someone else do the seat and then put his name on it.

I thought they had used a K model solo seat pan.

That is what I am seeing too.

When it comes to spring seats there is almost always some customization involved, massage the parts to make it work...
