Default Help out my girl's bottom...

Everyone,

I ride with a 2-piece Mustang Vintage saddle on my 2008 Fatbob. When 2-up I throw on the rear pilon, but the girl isn't a fan after about 30 mins. After some time at the HD dealer and browsing online, I'm not seeing a lot of options for a better 2-piece saddle with more padding/surface area for her. Anyone have experience here or have suggestions?

Yes, I know the right answer is "buy a touring bike." Currently saving....

You didn't like the Sundowner? It's a lil ugly, but it's got more padding.

Well if you insist, send her over and I'll see if I can rub that out. Won't take me very long either. Just kidding.

You know, what I didn't check was whether the sundowner seat would attach while my Mustang Vintage was already on there...

When we used my 02 Dyna for touring I put a Sundowner on it, replacing the stock seat, both are one piece two up seats. The Sundowner has a wide and thick rear pad for the passenger. The wife liked it but at times her sciatic nerve in her leg would act up.

Saddlemen seat - then add a sissy bar with a pad - she'll love you long time

Have you considered upgrading the shocks? You’d be amazed how much that can improve how much the **** hurts.

You certainly don’t need. 900 lb. touring bike to have a comfortable seat.
