Try Ebay - they always have "solo seat kits" for putting chopper/bobber style spring seats on sportsters. You can also find the seats separately.

Didn't they move the ECM to under the battery cover for the '10 models? If so then just about any universal spring seat mounting kit should work. IIRC '07-'09 Sportsters are the only years plagued by the ECM location.

Yeah, You'll end up with something cooler if it isn't a "kit".

licks sells a nice kit or can make a bracket out of flat pretty easy and get a seat for about 50-100 bucks and mount your springs to the frame or just not run springs
