Default Okay Experts! What Seat is this???

As some of you know, I was trying to get a 2-up seat, and I had a trade fall through, so I went to a swap meet today here in Denver and found a brand new seat, which fits great. I traded for it and now it's on the bike. Brand new, strap, new hardware, saddle soap.

Anyway, I don't know what seat it is. Anyone know what it is by sight?

Not sure but it seems to have about the same profile as the Mustang 2 piece seat.

No markings on the bottom of the seat to indicate the manufacturer?

If the seat has "Harley Markings" on the bottom, it probably came from Milsco who makes all the seats sold under the HD name. The number is a production run number, not a parts number. I had some problems with a seat that was supposed to have been for a Road King, but it was actually a Dyna seat.
I contacted Milsco about identifying it and they answered back very quickly.
Good luck.

Cool, thanks for the heads up. It fits perfect though. I was concerned since I was at a swap, but the guy was cool and came out so I could put it on the bike. Fits great, though I need to confirm if I should be using one screw or two. But I may just be used to my old Sporty seat.

LOL - Thanks dude. The wife liked it when she saw it, and that's about the level of padding she wants. I may have a little custom work done and add some gell for a little more back rest for me and front horn for her. Give it a few hundred miles to break in and see how it feels.
