Default Pic Request: Drag Specialties Predator Classic Seat on Iron

http://www.ebay.com/itm/390664421472...84.m1436.l2649

Anyone have this seat on an Iron? Looking for a good 2 up seat. I liked Biltwell's tuck n roll until I saw profile shots of it on an Iron. It leaves too much of a gap between the seat's front and the tank, for my tastes anyway. I also like that this one has the same tuck n roll style but with more padding. So if anyone has this seat on an Iron or similar model, it would be greatly appreciated to see some more pics! If not, maybe I should just give it a shot. Thanks!

Couldn't agree more about that ugly gap. This looks like a great alternative. Might be too new(?) for someone to have a picture on a bike yet though.

That seat is listed as fitting virtually all models of 2004up Sporties. The only way it can do that, is to have a short nose which allows it to fit with the longer 4.5 gallon tanks, leaving a gap when used with smaller tanks.
