Default Danny Gray seat

I just ordered a flame buttcrack for my 07 deluxe. Does anyone know if Danny Gray makes a P pad for this seat ? Preferably a wide with flames. My girl likes comfort.
thanks

Contact Sherry @ 1-888-443-2669 or send her an email to: sherry@dannygray.com. She is real easy to work with and would know. The websight does not indicate a pillion for that seat.

no pillions made for the buttcrack. It would be a trial and error method, but I was thinking about getting shorter bolts to go through the fender and come out under the buttcrack seat (the bolts that used to secure the front of the stocker pillion). I could make an extension bracket to attach. The rear hole would have to line up also. I would feel better about that then letting my bitch ride on suction cups. Not sure how the Deluxe mounts, but sure you could fab something.

My seat should get here monday. I will mess around and see what I can come up with. Can you tell me if the buttcrack covers the stock seat bolts. And how does it mount ? The only pics I could find are either one bolt in the rear or a tab on ech side down by the frame. Hopefully my wheels get here by next friday. Major changes to the bike. Pretty stoked.
Thanks

On my Heritage, I had to remove the stock seat bolts. It is actually one piece removeable from under the fender. I just removed the nuts and let the bolt setup fall around the tire. I thought about getting another one of these bolt setups and cutting them shorter and keeping it under the seat with some skinnier nuts. The front of my seat sits under the front lip like the stocker and attaches on either side with bolts. The threaded holes for this were plugged with a plastic plug. Just get a flathead and pry them out. You might need to WD and clean the threads before screwing the bolts in.

I like the comfort of my DG more than the stock Heritage seat. Stocker had more cushion, but the Dg fits like a glove with never any discomfort.

'07s might be different, but Sherry told me that make a special Buttcrack for the '05/'06 Deluxe that is slightly longer in the back so that it covers the two stock seat mouting holes in the fender. And then the seat itself mounts to either side of the frame.



Sherry sent me this. Buttcrack for '06 Deluxe. Rear is slightly longer to cover the old bolt holes.
