I used to have the sdeat from a 2007 XL883L on my 2011 XL883N, the earlier seat fitted fine but it pushed my body about 3" further forward whick hunched me up a bit and my leg room was limited, so I removed the seat.
The 2004 to 2006 and 2010 to 2022 seats won't fit the 2007 to 2009 Sportster models with the ECM mounted in the rear fender.
I now have a CC Rider seat with orange piping and stitching.

Great setup you have there. Is that a tank cover? It's a beauty.

Hello, thank you for your kind comment,
Yes the tank and rear fender have leather covers, I got them for the bargain price of Ł80.00.
I bought genuine H-D leather bar & shield emblems and knee grip pads and added them to the tank cover. I had my local furniture upholsterer sew the emblems to the cover, the knee pads are stuck on with 3M double sided tape. The cover fits the 3.3 gallon Sportster tank perfectly.
The image below is a stock one from the AliExpress listing that I bought mine from, I bought mine in 2019, I think they are still available to buy.
