I've been really happy with the HD Signature Series Touring Solo Seat w/Backrest... It also fits an '08. I've had it for almost four years now and it's ridden well and is holding up well.

i road the new cvo road glide last weekend. i really liked the seat on it. not sure what seats they put on CVO's. Does anyone know?
i bought my bike used, and the guy had put a different seat on. i'm not sure which one it is, but it's one of the HD seats. it's not too bad, just can't tell you which one it is....

I didnt realize the front "catch" changed from 07-08. If all newer stuff fits though, that helps a bunch...I just have to check the rear mount...if they're all a single bolt like BigDads, I'm truly stuck with a one-year fluke :/

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you
I'll have to check some out.
That's waaaaay outta my budget
I'll keep an eye out
THAT I wouldn't mind having...I'll have to look into c&c more. My rear seat mount is different though....I have the 2 bolts (then the single bolt at the end of the p-pad)
That ones probably a little over budget too...I'm in "broke white boy" mode....My main reason for replacing is my stock seat is splitting at the seams (literally), and I figured if I gotta replace it, might as well go solo.

No you are not stuck with a 1 year fluke. That 1 bolt is on an adapter plate that uses the fender bolts to attach and gives you a single mounting point for a solo saddle. If you are not mounting a solo saddle this plate would not be used. The already present mounting point would be used. Don't over analyze this.
That's a relief, thanks. I tend to do the overanalyzin' on occasion LOL.
