Picture of underside of a Badlander needed

Hey,if anyone has a Badlander type seat fitted to their 200mm rear tyred softail can they please post a pic of it(the underneath section) on here for me? having a bit of an issue with a guy who sold me a seat to fit my 06 Softail(200 rear end) he says I have the right seat but to me it doesn't seem right...fouls the ECU on the rear fender,my stock seat has a recess to allow the seat to snug down onto the fender,the seat I have been sold has to be forced down and then it doesn't seem right....don't remember having this issue with my 07 Night train with a similar seat...thanks guys.

wow! if that's not a cheap looking tack job underneath I don't know what is. Typical HD seat IMO.

When I had the badlander on my train it definiitely didnt have to be forced down. Sounds like you might have the wrong seat to me.

Part number: 51397-06A

Per my trusty HD parts catolog it fits: 07'-later FLSTF, FLSTB and 06'-later FXST and FXSTS.

I know you said you had an 06' softail, but you didn't say what model. Yours probably takes a different part number than my FLSTF.
