Not that I've run across. That's a nice looking setup. Sometimes ya just gotta pay the exchange rate and shipping. I've got more than a couple dollars wrapped up in German and UK parts, not to mention the Swedish stuff that is distributed domestically.

Your picture is actually showing the mounting plate for the springs not the seat pan itself.

With their springs the seat sits quite high.

On the Indian - yes. But the 2 options they have for the Dyna don't have springs.

$390-$500....

Sadly, it's really not...assuming the quality is there. Good seats are expensive. Especially the pretty ones.

You'd choke if you knew what I got in my little seat adventure...

Custom aluminum rigid mount solo. By myself and Rocket Bob's. 3rd attempt. 4th (hopefully final) is in the works...

I'm thinking the only way to mount a solo/spring seat on a Dyna would be to drill into the backbone area below where the tank mount tabs are and then attaching the seat hinge onto that. Probably use rubber bumpers instead of springs also.
Cggorman........I looked at post #159 on your build thread. Man, that seat-work you did is really impressive. You should be selling the kit instead of that Italian Company!

Thanks. That's very flattering, but my seat mounting required cutting parts off and welding parts onto the frame. Very few Dyna owners want rigid solos and even fewer want to cut/weld....

I actually really like the mounting Ends Cuio came up with. It's lower than mine, but I'm not in love with the rear fastener. I think I may try a variation of it for my next seat.
