Default Badlander Seat

Will a Road King badlander seat fit a Ultra Classic? Not sure how it will fit around the tank.

Default RE: Badlander Seat

Are you ordering a new seat? If so look on their web site. I can tell you the Ultra tank console is much shorter then let says the RK FLHR

Ever consider C&C seats? http://www.ccseats.com/

Update... I found this for ya.

Fits '97-later Road KingÂŽ models (except FLHRS) and FLHX models. Also fits '97-later Electra GlideÂŽ and Road GlideÂŽ models equipped Fuel Tank Console P/N 71288-03A or Trim Piece P/N 52447-96. All models (except FLHR) require separate purchase of Solo Seat Hardware Kit P/N 52903-01. Does not fit with rider backrests.

I was on e-bay and found one cheap. I’m going with the detachable tour pak and wanted a lower seat.

I've got a Badlander on my RK and after 200 miles you know it. After a long ride you could have an *** cheek removed with a spork and not know it.

It does look cool though.

I pulled my stock seat off my FLHX and installed a Mustang Solo w/ Pillion for the wife when the tour pac goes on. I had more back aches and tension in my neck with that seat than I could handle. I looked at the badlander, but opted for the more expensive Sidekick seat. Guess what? No more back aches, no pinched nerves in my neck, and I can ride all day on this low profile seat with no problem. Best low profile seat i've ever sat on. Here are acouple pics with the Sidekick seat from HD. (Cost me about 450.00)
