Several rocker owners would love more seat options, including myself. Some have no interest in carrying a passenger, and prefer being solo. So the rocker solo seat will work for them, or corbin, Danny Grey etc. I myself like the convenience of the trick seat. But rather than having to buy the solo rocker seat to get the plush padded 2 up with sissy bar, why cant Harley make that same pad with sissy bar to fit the rockerc pillion? It could mount the same way as the trick seat. And just leave it at home when not in use and you would still have the option of trick seat. My wife loves the idea, wish it was a option.

what about if you left your wife is at home and need to take the babe at the bar home and dont have that seat.. what then!! just kidding about that but wish there was an after market seat that is comfortable and still can use the trick seat. thats what id like to see

Flyburch, what I ment has you covered with the bar seen. lol. I dont want a different seat, just a extra pillion seat, just like the rocker's. Only it would mount on our existing trick pillion, with pin pull and all. Make the wife more comfy, and make our trick pillions more versatile. Keep the original pad under the seat, just as always. Its there if needed. They could do a lot with that trick pillion if they gave it some thought. Like a pull pin luggage rack, back rest, small trunk etc, etc.

If you guys can be patient, I'm working on a few ideas that might have you interested. Can't say too much right now...but as soon as I get the bike back up to Michigan (where my shop is) I will work out a few prototype parts and post some pictures I think you're going to love.

Sorry, didn't mean to split this thread but I was writing about the Rocker-C passenger seat option at about the same time that you were - once again apologize for splitting the thread. Well, guess we can check both threads for ideas & potential solutions - having the same issue you are, just need a longer distance option.

I agree with you. There is a lot of things that could be done with the trick seat platform. I would like to have a luggage rack that snaps in there. Would come in really handy sometimes.
