I've been looking at putting a sprung seat on my classic, how did you do yours?

I used this kit, http://soetengadesign.com/Seat%20kits.htm . Its pretty expensive for what you get but you don't have to drill into the frame. I also didn't care for it being polished stainless so I painted the brackets and the cover pan black. The seat is HD.

Is your bike injected or carb'ed? Last I checked with those guys, the kit wasn't for injected bikes....

Mine is carbed, I read on another site that the only reason that they say the kit doesn't fit EFI is that all 4 mounting holes in the cover pan don't line up, but you can just fasten using the 2 bottom holes or I suppose you could redrill the pan also

Heres a couple other photos, I think it turned out ok. I don't know how long its going to stay on there though as the girlfriend wants to ride.

Sweet.

I checked out their site again, and they're listing a kit for EFI Softails now, so it looks like I need to start saving my nickels.

thanks coaster , it actually is suprisingly comfortable considering it's basically just a pan with a bit of foam and a leather covering
