Welcome to the Site Looking for seat its best to stay with your model of motorcycle there are so many to choose from a lot of us just have the seat we have customized to fit us. Look to see your dealer can recommend some one they use.

there are no dealers here. That being said, I know you are right but I found a real nice touring seat for $130 so I was crossing my fingers that it would fit, but it doesn't sound like it. My 30 year old soft tail seat kills me after even just 100 miles. Maybe I'm just being a pus

Checking out Mean City Cycles. They can rebuild your seat to your liking, and it’s amazing how much of a difference it make. The double decker memory foam is awesome, and it’s way cheaper than buying a new seat.
