Default HD Seat? (Ebay link)

Any confirmation as to whether this would fit a sportster?

It looks pretty much exactly like the stock solo seat for 03 and older models, but not 100%.

It's hard to tell without measurements. Looks comfy though.

Looks identical to the one I just replaced on my 2001 Sporty. Big and fat but far less comroftable than a LePera barebones (go figure).

I believe Sportster saddles have a tongue in the front that goes under a tab on the bike. The saddle in the picture has the opposite.

I have asked him about the seat but no reply yet. It does have the tab on the front of the seat. It really does look exactly like the stock seat which is what I'm looking to get (unfortunately the 04+ models won't fit mine as they look so much better imo). No luck on the PN search either.

I can't say right now as I'm not 100%, but yes, it looks exactly like the one I took off my '00 sporty & cut down myself. I can look once I get home after work, as I have the stocker setting on my bar for a quick swap out whenever I feel like having the solo on.

Thanks WV. He got back to me and said it looks exactly like the sportster seat but has no confirmation. It was on a moto guzzi he purchased. I'll ask for dimensions.
