I found a seat id like to purchase. It looks like a flh solo seat but im not sure and neither is the seller.
Can anyone tell me just by looking at the photos If that seat is indeed for a harley touring bike.
Also how do you attach a solo seat to these bikes? Im guessing a bracket is needed to attach the seat to the two bolts on the fender.
Ill stop bugging people with these random questions once my shop manual arrives
Looks more like a softail seat to me. If you hold it so the cushion is level I reckon the underside will follow the line of a softail frame and flip up at the rear in front of the fender. Is there a part number on that white label?

Reason: Added question.
Can't PM you most likely due to having 9 posts but live close by and have a couple nice seats I can no longer use. Depends on the year of your bike???
Thanks guys. I ended up passing on the seat. I didn't get a chance to see it in person but didn't want to risk it not fitting. I did find a Saddlemen Pro Tour Seat I'm wondering if it looks similar to a badlander. Does anyone have any pics of a saddleman on their flh?
Mike my bike is a 2000 model flhtc. What types of seats do you have? I am looking for either a solo or more of a lower profile seat...
Im guessing It will not let me PM due to the fact that I joined about 4 days ago.

The seat on my bike in the sig pic is off a RK. Any FLH seat from a similar model year will work.
As a matter of fact I will sell you that particular seat and pillion if you are interested. You can use it with or without the passenger seat. I even have the little filler panel you will need
