RE: Seat input
We have a 1 piece 2 up Sundowner. Wife says it is comfortable. I sits me up about 1 inch higher that the stock St Bob solo. If you are vertically challenged, that may be a consideration. It is a little bulky, but the wife is happy.

RE: Seat input
The seat, if properly installed should not scratch any painted surface, let alone the fender. Make sure it fits properly w/o any pushing or rubbing before you go on your way. There should be no exposed staples, metal or other hard surfaces under the seat. Some seats are covered in a plush velvety kind of fabric, some have a carpet-line bottom, all designed not to scratch.

Do you want best looking or most comfortable they are most assuredly not the same thing.If I were looking for a two up seat I'd try to find a used Lowrider seat.

RE: Seat input
Flyrod,good advise except for the HD Pillion Pad. There is nothing under it except hard plastic,staples and no liner at all. I bought the touchup paint and it is like liquid gold on my black denim,just TAKE YOUR TIME.

I change from one to two up all the time. I use the HD bumpers and just remove the two for the Badlander when not in use. I also bought some of the foam stuff for lining toolbox drawers and cut a piece to fit under the back portion of the two-up. It protects the paint very well and stays put.
