Default Saddlemen vs lepera kickflip seat

Have an 03 fxd. Just got my saddlemen step up and my girlfriend hates the passenger portion. I love it though. Was looking at the kickflip and it seems the passenger portion is a little wider. Anyone have any experience between the two and can compare the two, specifically on the passenger area. Or other step up options better for 2up. Thanks fellas

What about the same model with gel?
Anyways, San Diego customs has one and lucky Dave, they both are also produced by saddlemen. Bmc has gel on both passenger and driver?

When I was looking at these two seats I got to touch and feel them. For sure (and saddlemen told me this) the step up is not really a two up seat. If your girlfriend is petite she will like the kickflip.

I purchased the kickflip for my Dyna and I love it. I have only taken small girls on it and no complaints. If they were more voluptuous (nice way of putting it) maybe.
