Seats & Sissy Bars for the Milwaukee-Eight Softail, '18-'26. The seat changes how a bike feels more than anything else you can bolt on.

What Is In This Collection

Seats and seats and sissy bars, from Le Pera, Saddlemen, Drag Specialties, Slyfox, Kodlin and Pro-one.

M8 Softail Fitment

M8 Softail covers '18-'26 - Street Bob, Fat Bob, Low Rider S and ST, Fat Boy, Heritage, Breakout, Sport Glide and Softail Slim. Every M8 is throttle-by-wire, so cable-throttle grips and controls do not apply.

Years that change what fits:

2018 - the M8 Softail replaced both the Twin Cam Softail and the Dyna on an all-new frame.

Worth knowing: FXDR and FXDRS are M8 Softails despite the FXD letters, FLXRST is the Low Rider ST and FLXRS the Low Rider S, and FLHC and FLSB are Softails rather than Touring bikes.

Choosing A Seat

A seat is cut for a specific fender line and specific mounting points, which makes it one of the least forgiving parts to buy by eye. Decide solo or two-up first, then foam: gel and multi-density foam matter most past the first hour in the saddle, and a thin custom seat looks right and rides hard. Sissy bars and backrests are usually sold separately from their mounting hardware or docking kits, and the pad may be its own part number again.
