Default Seat Question
Will this seat from a Heritage Softail fit on a Softail Deluxe? Is it a straight bolt on swap? Or do you have to make alterations? And does it move you back any further than the stock Deluxe seat? Thanks!

It should fit, my buddy put my 06 Deluxe seat on his 2011 heritage with no problems. The deluxe and heritage seat bolts the same way...the tab on the front of the seat slides on the frame and the bolts in the back of the fender will line right up. I didnt notice if it sits you back further or not.
