Default Springer Seats
So im looking for a springer seat for my 07 Train since i got my new fender, but im having a hard time trying to find something. Ive seen the Roland Sands kit, like it, but cant justify spending $600 for it. Looking for a kit though that will cover up the battery. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!

Show us a picture of what your working with, but I would say get the HD solo seat mount kit and go with a seat for the crossbones. Shadetree makes a nice battery cover, or you can chop down a crossbones one.

+1 on the CrossBones configuration should work well... I have done mine from different components, and it was an interesting process, but mine is the older 150 rear tire.

HD's kit should work for you.

Wait- what kind of "new" fender are you running?

Another vote for the stock Cross Bones set-up. It's an easy bolt on affair.
