Default 2 Up on a Lowrider

For those of you who ride 2 up on your Dynas how comfortable is it for your passenger? We would mostly be taking short trips 100-300 miles. The Lowrider has allways been my favorite and thinking of getting one this spring.

My wife rides her own now, but she was never fond of the factory seat. The ride on a Dyna itself is great, but if you are going to have a passenger for extended trips I would recommend getting a more comfortable aftermarket seat like a Mustang.

My wife rides with me sometimes. She hated the stock seat but I got the Mustang squareback seat and now we are both happy. I bet the sundowner would be nice too.

My fiance says that the seat hurts her but and she said the pegs vibrate to the point that they hurt her feet. I dont want to put floor boards on the passenger pegs but I can rub all that hurts. LOL

When I had my sporty I tried the sun downer but it raised me up and pushed me forward a bit. The ride was great and far as comfort but I felt like i was too high on the bike.

I had the Low Rider seat on my 06 Super Glide for a while. The Wife and I ride pretty much every weekend when the temperatures are comfortable. Typically, we'd run about 150 - 200 miles. This distance was tolerable to her.

I am sure there are seats out there which would make her more comfortable. But, as long as thecollection agentsask for me when they ring the phone, I will stick with what I like on the bike. Also, this may be a good way to get her on her own bike.

Shouldn't be problem as long as she has a backrest & a better seat. The stock seat ain't much to sit on for a passenger.

I have heard good comments about the Lepera and Mustang seats, also the Harley Sundowner, hope this helps.
