Rather than hijack this thread I will copy some links for you.

I love this seat set up. This is an HD 1929 seat with Cross Bones mount. HD X Bones springs are perfect combo taking the harshness out of larger bumps. The rear spring mount is too tall.

check out post #9, close up photos of my mounts , covers, seat.
Unless you really like the look of the chopped front mount, I would not chop it.

You can see the stock front X bones mount on my "full fender" bike, front of seat looks fine and feels better:

Let me know if you ever do a seat mod. I have a couple seats and fenders, and I swap back and forth now and then.


Send me a PM if you need more info.
