this is very interesting, I love my 84 shovel with comfort flex. I now have an interest in flht's with evo's. I read this seat can fit up to a 93 flt. Do you have knowledge of this?

Not much knowledge
believe comfort flex will work 84-92
thought they changed battery location in 93 from side to under seat prohibiting fitment of comfort flex.

seats very comfortable

Default Seat

To this day I have not seen an evo with a comfort flex seat, until seeing yours. Have you seen any, or do you have any pictures you could share, of other evos with flex seat?
