Default Need Some Help with Passenger Seat

Hi,

I just got a VL800 which I love. The guy who owned it before had the COBRA exhaust pipes installed and changed the handlebars and fenders to make it more like a chopper. The bike looks and feels great, now the only thing is that I was given a brand new passenger seat with it to put it on since he made it for a solo rider but now I realize that the regular Volusia seat won't fit this bike since the stop light is in the way.

So, for those more experienced people that have customized their bikes, what would be the best and less costly option, change the rear fender so it accomodates the standard seat or find a suitable seat that fits the bike as is. What would be a good place to start looking for a seat? Any feedback on those seats with suction cups?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks and have a great day.
