I’ve always thought the 2014 Standard seat was a little too plain so I put a 2014 Deluxe seat on my bike only to find out it did fit but didn’t look right. After doing some digging I found there are brackets and spacers that go with the Deluxe seat in order to get it to fit on the 2014 Standard. This picture is with the Deluxe seat and all the hardware in place. What the brackets do is reposition the grabbar so it follows the bottom edge of the seat.[url=https://postimg.cc/FYTbqsbw]

As you can see in this picture the Deluxe seat sits on top of the grab bars,the seat will latch but at some point the bars will cut into the vinyl that and it just doesn’t look right.

They’re different seats?

The seat pans yes,the Standard seat bottom is angled up towards the back and the Deluxe seat is straight across the bottom edge.

What about the height of the deluxe seat? I struggle to get my feet flat on the ground with the standard seat on my '14 std. Will the dlx seat make that worse?

if I remember correctly, the standard is a bit slimmer....but...the dlx is much more confi

Anything is more comfortable, I reckon, than the standard saddle.
