Default What is this seat ? FXDWG


Hello everyone.
In other forum, I found great deep seat for Dyna Wide Glide, but I don't know what it is.
It looks like Badlander but neared for Softail Seat.
Unfortunately, the author doesn't know what it is, and they outside the forum for 6 monts, so I have no way to ask him.

Sorry for my English
Thanks in advance

greetings
mustech

Perhaps You're right, but it doesn't look that typical badlander for Dyna Wide Glide.
Here is next photo of the same DWG with proper seat dedicated for this model (I think is 52284-96A).



On the first photo above, seat is more deep, looks like the Softail Badlander.
But frame for softail is different then Dyna so I don't know how seat from Softail may adapt to Dyna,
I think it's impossible without some modification.

I think it's a badlander but it does look deeper in that photo, maybe it's been reworked.
If you want a deeper seat maybe go for c&c fastback.
I've had both and the c&c looks and feels way better.

This may have been covered already, but the seats in those 2 pictures are different. Look at the Harley logo in the first one, diff in the second.

The seat in the first post looks similar to my OEM FXD2003 seat:

It looks a lot like my seat. I have a super glide seat on mine and it works fine. In the wind.
