Does anyone know of a conversion kit to convert my stock factory two up seat on a 2007 iron head bullet to a solo spring seat? Preferably the large Harley type. I tried the search feature for the forum but I can't seem to get it to produce any results on the topic.

Whatever you do don't order the "American style" solo seats from E Bay from an Indian vendor. Doesn't even come close to fitting,the chrome was pitiful, same for the welding and paint. I did manage to fab a bracket and fit it but the springs were laughably weedy and i pogo-ed back onto the fender every time i hit the gas! Needless to say it is going back,lesson learned.

Thanks Roverman. I was seriously considering ordering the exact one your talking about. It may be best to just order the parts for a bike build and make it work. I traded for some Harley sportster parts with my nephew a few years ago when he upgraded his seat and exhaust. One of the items I got out of the deal was an extra stock seat. I made a few brackets for the Harley seat and mounted it today, now I can plant my feet firmly on the ground when I stop at lights. Would still like a springer seat.

Wolfpack - It was not a 5 minutes job but I used Harley bobber Ultima Seat and with some help manufactured all the missing hardware myself.  I am pleased with the results.

Tarnand, that seat looks good on there. Nice job

[Tarnand]

Thank you dginfw.  I realized that perhaps I also should have posted the entire profile of the bike.

Returning my seat was a bust, shipping would have cost $80. So i will sit (pun intended) and think on it awhile, especially after seeing what Tarnad did.

Great looking seat Tarnand, I had to fab a piece of 12 gauge one inch steel to get the solo seat I picked up at Nfield to fit. I thought it was just that I'm a pretty big guy and that the pogo bouncing was just something I was going to have to live with. HAAA

Thats a beauty right there.  Does the old yoke move the handlebars back by a couple of inches. It looks that but I thought I'd ask.

Thats a beauty right there.  Does the old(er) yoke and light setup move the handlebars back by a couple of inches. It looks that but I thought I'd ask.

Oh man, thanks for the whole bike profile, that's REALLY a nice lookin ride. Well done seat & all around maintenance really shows.

Great job Tarnand. Beautiful bike and seat. I was wanting a brown springer seat to match my bags. Just like the way they look on a thumper. I was going to order the Hitchcock seat, but with shipping and the currency exchange the money just isn't there right now. Thanks for the detailed pics.

[Tarnand]

Thank you guys - your comments really made me feel good.

1 Thump - I am not sure if the top yoke made much difference.  I will take some measurements and pictures tomorrow.

[Tarnand]

Well, below are the images.  Just as I thought the top yoke offset is about the same.  What actually made for me a considerable difference was the currently installed WD CO steering bar.  Maybe on photos it does not appear much but I definitely feel it after a longer ride.
