hello all,
im looking to put a spring seat on my 2008 nightster. I've patched the back fender and painted it, and will be relocating the ecm shortly. So basically I'm looking for a cheaper set up that I can run a suly tuck and roll seat that measures 9.5x13. If someone could guide me in the direction of a setup that would look clean and pair with a seat of this size I'd really appreciate it. Pictures are welcome 😎
Check out dk customs. He has some spring seats. Also the sponsor of the sportster forum. I have one of theirs on my bike though I think it's an older model they don't sell anymore.

I just ordered from DK Friday. I PMed him my size and he hit back with a list of suggestions to make an informed buy. So I'd say that's the best customer service I experienced and was a lot more affordable than what I was going to purchase originally.

I was a little confused looking at their setup. To me it looked like it was just a seat pan that could be covered, instead of using a seat? Will you share a link to what you purchased?

That was the one I purchased which actually costs more in the end. The cover comes seperately, I want to try to tool it myself. Don't laugh when I post the results.
Just thought I'd add these, if you wanted to make a custom cover or go brown these are the links you'd use. The top is cover-less complete system, the other is a link to the covers. The Outlaw is the custom. This is the route I took.
