Default Seat Exchange
I've got a 1995 Ultra Classic with a corbin custom seat that was made for the previous owner. I'm shorter than him and the seat is uncomfortable.

My question, will the 95 seat exchange with say a stock 2008 seat?

Or what would be my options?

Corbin is close by in Ormaond Beach Florida for me and I was thinking about going thee and seeing if they could modify/replace this seat to fit my butt!

The 08 has a larger fuel tank, so the seats are not interchangeable.

I think the seat pans are different but Corbin should be able to tell you.

I ride a corbin. I don't know if you will find a much lower saddle. If you have a problem reaching the floor with a corbin, you may want to think about lowering shocks and front end.

I had an 08' ultra and could touch flat footed, so I think the issue is that the seat is too high for me.

I understand that corbin measures the inseam and such and makes the seat custom.

An 08 seat mounts totally diffferent from any 07 and below. So they cannot be switched.

Default Lowered seat
Think Mustang. I have the daytripper and it lowered me 1 1/2 inches. Mustang makes a fantastic seat that is actually comfortable.

Harley changed the frames in 97, so 94/95/96 Touring Models are the same, 97 to 07 are the same, and 08-09 are the same. If you want to swap out your seat, you need those years. FWIW, the 95 seat mounts like the 08, IE, uses a tab / slot, but because the frames are different, they don't match up.
