Default Can anyone identify this seat for sure from a supposed 2008 Road King?

I just picked this seat up today for the bike that I'm picking up on Saturday. Through this forum I discovered that my 2008 Road King Police FLHRi will only take an 08 or later seat. The guy I bought this from says it was his stock seat off a 2008 Road King FLHR. I have already searched the forum using the number on the bottom (RDW-92/61-0067) and discovered it is just a pan number. I have also gone through my harley catalog and the closest thing I can come to is a 52619-08a Reduced Reach Seat in terms of the dimension's of seat width 15" and the passenger pillon of 13". It has similar Road King studs as Sundowner but that fits up to an 07. So can anyone tell me what the model and year it is? Thanks

It isn't the pic in your profile is it? That seat is definitely not the same. Let me know. Thanks

Very same seat is on my 08 RK. Most comfortable stock bike seat I've ever had.

Well I guess this is all very good news. Hopefully it will fit, hopefully it will be comfortable and best of all it cost me $70! Well I guess my fiance should be thanking me or I would just keep the standard police solo
Thanks

looking at the bottom is a very good way to tell what it fits as well.

no part number on the bottom?

in H-D world, most parts numbers end with a 2 digit suffix which indicates the year the part was introduced ( not always the year it fits, though)

A part number can be a good indicator, then cross reference at the online parts manual or google it

I crossed referenced every number on the back and nothing matched up to a harley number on google or in the current HD catalog. Thanks.
