Should only be used for show. I would never let anyone sit on one of those things.

Is that the suction cup passenger pad? I have one for my bike. Although I haven't carried a passenger on it I stuck it on (dry and clean) and could not move the thing for anything without peeling the suction cups up one at a time.

Funny you say that BASIC I just got one the other day so my girl could go for a ride (I prefer to ride solo but she loves bikes) anyway I got a mile down the road looked back and the thing was gone. Back tracked and found it in the middle of the road. Good thing nobody ran over it. Speaking of passengers, what brackets did you use? I got Harley brackets had them powder coated glossy black to match the frame and used black iodized foot pegs to match my forward controls.

Wont work very well on the Black Denim.. Put it on and it wont budge,, come back in 5 min and all 6 suction cups have released its grip, a breeze would knock it off.
Time after time after time.. I ve heard some having luck with normal paints,,, But it wont stick to mine..........................

Yea, I don't think they would stick well on the Denim paint. I'll probably just put mine on when I know there will be someone sitting on it. I used the HD brackets as well and had them powdercoated too. Why they make them with the wrinkle black when the frame is gloss makes no sense to me.
