Street Bob - Bitch Seat Help
I've got an '07 street bob
 \\;
I love the bike with the single seat
 \\;
but recently I've found someone who wants to ride on the back[sm=grinangel.gif]
 \\;
what's the cheapest way to get a passenger set? \\; all new seat? pegs? help me out i'm new
 \\;
 \\;
If there is anything out there, that would make it easy to switch back to a single seat easily, that'd be great
 \\;
 \\;
how much am I looking at to get a bitch on back? \\; cuz I need this quick!

RE: Street Bob - Bitch Seat Help
I bought the passenger pillion ($130), but then returned it and went with a badlander seat ($190). \\; The problem with the pillion was that you have to pull the stock seat, bolt the pillion to it, move the receiver plug, then re-mount the seat. \\; It is a lot faster to just pull the stock solo and mount a two up, especially if you buy an extra receiver plug (don't know what the part name actually is). \\; Now I run the badlander most of the time because I usually have a backpack on and don't want it to scratch the fender paint. \\; I mounted the bumper kit to the seat instead of the fender, and bought an extra plug and quick change knurled finger bolt. \\; So that route you are looking at 200 and change, plus the rear pegs and mounts. \\; Sometimes you can find them on the forum in the classifieds.

Depends on the situation I think...me, I'm married to my passenger, and I know she's gonna want rides, so I'm going with a detachable sissy bar, and most likely a 2-up seat. They tend to be more comfortable than a pillion, and it's almost easier to just remove the solo and switch the 2-up seat in than deal with a pillion.

There was a thread on here about a month ago which solved the problem of using the passenger pillion, he cut grooves in the stem of the pilluon so you just slide it in place and place one phillips head screw in, done.

I happen to have a once or twice used pillion for sale for $50 plus shipping, and a few other parts for a Dyna, but not the passenger pegs.

I guess, seat wise, it depends on the type of 2-up riding you're planning to do. \\; From experience, the HD passenger pillion is rock hard, the Sundowner is not too bad. \\; Easier to find a really comfy 2-up if you plan to ride long. \\; If it's just bumping around town, the p-pad will be fine. \\; It is a pain to keep going from solo to 2-up, if you do go that way. \\; Either way, you'll need the brackets and pegs.
