two up seat advice
Hi all-
i have gotten great advice from this site (better than most internet research i do) so let me start by saying thanks!
I just got my 08 back Dyna FX out from winter storage. I have been riding everyday, live in New England. I will post a few pics of the mods done this winter.
I powder coated the handle bars, sissy bar, luggage rack, battery cover,the guard for the belt, bought black air cleaner, turns signals front and rear, black mirrors...looking at some black V & H straight shots when I can save up a bit more...
Anyway after all the mods I am not loving the look of my sundowner seat, as far as comfort goes I ( and all my passengers) are extremely happy, but want a different look, something more low profile, but still want some comfort. I do alot of two up riding. I was looking at the HD badlander online. Does anyone else have pics of one on a Dyna..stories good or bad? or any other recommendations?
Thanks as always

Check out the C&C seats. I have the Fastback which isnt good for passenger comfort but they 2 other models that have better passenger areas. My fastback is very comfortable for me and love the stlye of the it.
They have a Squareback and Sport tour version that has the same drivers area but better passenger area.

I have a badlander, I loved it, passengers hated it. It now sits in my pantry way collecting dust. It may work for you but I would bet against it since you do 2 up a lot.
I mounted a C&C touring seat which is awsome in my opinion and passengers like it a lot also. 150 mile trips is about what it is good for 2 up for us comfort wise. If I am solo I have done 800 mile rides no sweat. Only complaint passengers have is it is slippery. I have no sissy bar so now they have to hold on more
. I ordered the fake leather( to early for me, can't recal tech name) instead of the authentic leather I bet the leather has more grip. Anyway I love the look and comfort of it so it stays on the bike.
Not sure if would be the meal ticket for you but I sure love it. My sig pic below shows the C&C seat on my WG.

Also forgot to add
You can get the C&C seats with a removeable drivers backrest which really increases the comfort for the driver. I got it for mine for longer rides but it never comes off now.
