Default What other seat fits a Deuce

I know the Deuce seems to be the oddball when it comes to replacement parts. Has anyone had luck fitting another solo seat on their Deuce. If so I would be interested to know. I really don't want to drop coin on a Mustang or Corbin.

So I guess LePera is out of the question. If you want something good, it's gonna cost money. You get what you pay for.

Harley makes custom seats for the Deuce. They aren't much cheaper than Mustang, etc. $250-300 range. Get on ebay and search for Deuce seats. May find a deal on a closeout.

No other factory Softail seats fit the Deuce if that's what your asking.

Link to ebay Deuce seats:

I have see all those items. I was really asking if someone has used a Fatboy, Heritage, or any other Softail solo seat and made it work on a Deuce.

Had a 07 great bike,,,,,,,,,,but nothing fits it. unless you drill new holes in your rear fender they wont fit (the seat bolt does not line up with yours)
Other than that the three mentioned above corbin, mustang and Lepera are pretty much your best three iv seen!

I did not realize it until after I bought it. I might buy a used fatboy seat and hack it apart to make it fit. Sounds like a good winter project!!

You'll have to hack the **** out of it. Part of the FB seat mounts on the frame by the struts. The Deuce Strut uses one of that mounting hole to mount the strut. Completely different strut than other softails. They are similar to the new fat tire bikes struts.
