Several good choices for seats depending on preference. I am a fan of Corbin or Mustang, have bikes with both. I have a Mustang Vintage Wide on my Switchback. I run it as a solo seat most of the time but add the passenger seat and sissy bar when I'm packed for a trip. I was going to go with a Corbin, I like the way they sit me back but when I looked at the dimensions for the SB the Corbin wasn't as wide as the Mustang Wide so I went with it.
As for a touring pkg. not sure what you are looking for but I seen a leather tour pack for sale on the Switchback Forum site last time I looked on there.
I would like to find a hidden hitch for mine so I could pull my trailer with it but so far all I've found for the SB is a single source out of Canada and it wasn't hidden and would run about $500 after shipping.
Edit: As for the vibration issue it is an easy fix. Problem was binding in the mounting point on the factory exhaust. A clevis pin and a couple nylon washers will fix it, or an aftermarket exhaust will do it as well. No vibration on mine.

Ill second the Mustang Vintage Wide. I had one on my Street Bob and it was the best seat I ever owned.
I just installed this Tsukayu GPS fairing i bought over the holidays. Its quick detach and lockable so its safe when parked at the bar or whatever. I still have a few things to do for cleaning up some wiring but it looks and sounds great. If anyone else goes this route, make sure you have the stock height risers. I had 3 1/2" and had to get these LA Choppers ones to accommodate my 1 1/4" bars. My bagger buddies are going to be jealous of my 6x9's
Curious about how it looks from the front? This is one bike I'm still looking at... Think it might be more comfortable for 2 up since wifey started riding last year... The 01 fxdl is comfortable for me but not too much for her

This is the old Memphis shades fairing i had, NOT the Tsukayu one i posted earlier. Looks the same more or less from the front, just no stereo. Once its riding season again, probably late March, i'll take pics of the new Tsukayu set up outside.
I cannot say how the bike is for long hauls as a passenger but the women i've had on the back don't complain about the ride. I've only toured on my own without a passenger.
