You can put any of the FX softail seats on a Cross Bones and switching the bars is a simple job too. Softails are very modular and easy to customize which is why they are the best Harleys. BTW that CVO springer is really a Rocker frame with a regular rear fender and the FL springer front end. Just goes to show how easy it is to make a softail any way you want it.

I didn't know that was a rocker frame,but changing the seat and the bars will bring very close look to the cvo bike,don't you think?

I've got the Corin Hollywood solo and pegs on my xbones. I am also in the middle of switching out my handle bars with some more remincent of the bad boy.

Sit on a Night Train and that is about what the seat will feel like.

Click on my name and it will take you to my profile. I have two crappy pictures there, but they are 'pre' handle bar modification.

Its currently in my garage w/o a tank or seat while I wait for a new clutch cable...

The are the stock bars in the pictures. I took them just prior to taking apart my bike to put my new bars on. They will look like the 95-97 bad boy bars but only the are in black.

Once I am done I will post a couple of pictures.

Being vertically challenged, I'm only 5'3", I couldn't stand the stock seat. I love the brawler, puts you in the frame, instead of on the the frame with the stock seat. Pretty sweet comfort wise.
