Default Fxsts seat advice
Hi, can anyone tell me if my recently purchased badlander style seat for my 96 fxsts needs other brackets for mounting. I bought it off eBay and it seems to fit but just not that well. It doesn't seem to rest on anything other than the slide at the front and the single screw through the rear fender. Is this correct? It seems like it is resting on some of the wiring under the seat, which can't be right!
