I have to change my Seat at my 1995 FLHTC.
Is it possible that the OEM Seat from 2013 FLHTC fit?

Unlikely I suspect. The later frame and fuel tank are different shapes.

I put a C&C Custom seat on my 1988 FLHTC. It takes a couple Mods but can be done. I had to remove the passenger hand rails and the bracket that holds the tour pack. Also had to drill a hole in the rear fender and in stall a Jack Nut (think that's what it's called). The OME seat was ok but felt like I was sitting up on top of my bike. The C&C sets me back 1 and down 1 1/2. Made a big difference. Very comfortable seat!!

Always look for a new used Corbin, the high rollers won't give a Corbin time to break in and say it is too hard and sell it. Once it forms to your azz it is the catazz

I don't know what this seat is but it was so dam comfortable. It ripped right under the harley logo patch thing though. Need to get it recovered because it really was a comfy seat and I received a few compliments on it. Part number doesn't come up at all.

Absolutely! I have three to fit my bike for less than the price of one new one.

Kind of looks like a Badlands seat.

I really like the look if the Fatboy seat on my Heritage, but it wasn't comfortable for a long ride. It got burned in the engine fire.


Replaced it with the Mustang Wide Touring which is a really comfortable seat and great for long rides. It just doesn't look as good as the Fatboy seat.

I've got a Corbin on my bike. Not sure how many of the 40000 miles the previous owner put on it. Maybe he was slight of build. Either way, my *** was furious with me after I put 350 miles on it last summer. Maybe my hiney needs to toughen up, or maybe the seat is as hard as a rock. Got nothing to compare it to.
