Default 73 flh

What seats will fit my 73 flh? I can't find any thing to fit an older bike that's comfortable for my passenger. Any help?

I suggest you visit our Classic Shovelhead forum, where you should get some help. If you have a sound seat base it may be worth looking into getting it custom reupholstered. A new seat for a 40 year old bike may be a challenge!
