Default Seat advice

Hi all-

Someone threw a cigarette out a window and it landed on my sundowner sear, burnt a hole right through...can't explain how mad I am anyway

Any advice on a two up seat? Don't think would get another sundowner, very comfortable but not crazy about the look..

Any pics or opinions on the sidekick or badlander

Thanks

Look on ebay as there are seats on there all the time. You will save 50%.

Check out C&C seats, they are very comfortable and still look good.

I have the fast back which doesnt give much passenger comfort but they have 2 similiar seats that have better passenger areas.

The wife tried out the passenger pad on the Wide Glide...said it wasn't going to cut it. I went with a LePera Daytona Smooth after that, and she's happy. Check the pics in my album.

Badlander is great if you don't like to do more than 50 miles in a day.

You might try shaping it a bit with an electric knife, and re-skinning it (leather or textured vinyl). Whittle down the parts of it you don't care for, to slim it down to your liking without taking all of mama's cushy away from her.
