Default not mine

copied this from somewhere on the Internet, searching pics for 'dyna bobbers'. Some say they don't like spring solo seats on a bike with shocks, but I think they can look good, if the seat doesn't sit too high relative to the rear fender.

Well, its kinda' a dyna. Spring seat anyways. I really liked it and it soaked up plenty of the bumps the shocks missed.

Default thanks

those look good, i think if the spring is short they look very cool, still trying to make up mind as of direction, but like the oldskool bobber look these seats give.

I dont have a problem with the solo seat being uncomfortable I think its just a matter of getting use to it, but if I wanted I can switch back to the stock seat by just removing a couple of bolts.
