try out the mustang tripper solo and pillion as seen on my bike below. It don't look like much, yet it seriously provides all day comfort for both me and my wife. Amazing how comfortable the right thin padded seat can be. Oh, the lepera that is better suited for 2up is the daytona two up as opposed to the daytona sport. Good part about the mustang, is you can just take off the pillion and have a nice looking comfortable solo seat. Also the rear pillion will look better on your bike because you have a wider fender than my 05.
I agree w/ all you guys cause if wife and I are comfortable the rides will be long and ther be less bitch'n.
Im going to look into the tripper w/ the pillion setup

No issue what so ever. I stay put when cranking the throttle(mid 90's HP and torque). The seat cover is kinda grippy and not slick and the back of the seat gives plenty of support the way it is designed. Order from mustang direct and you get 30 days to try out. Return for full refund if it is not for you. Of course slightly better prices(save 20-30 bucks) can be had buying from Zanottis or another shop possibly. So you know, several forum members got the seat based on my reviews and a few others and all have kept it and felt the same way as I do. Great seat, comfortable, and looks really good.

So I finally pulled the trigger tonight and did it! I order the Mustang Day Tripper Solo and Pillion from DennisKirk.com. I also got this nut thingy below ( I think I needed that to secure the pillion to the rear fender).
Can't wait to get the new parts! Thanks for all of the advice guys.

I saved some big bucks by going with a Fat Bob seat, and the old lady only rides about 10 miles to the bar. I paid $65 for the seat from a forum member, and I can ride 200 miles before I even want to get off my Street Bob. The best investment I have made to the bike yet. It has about the same size pillion as the mustang pillion.

Collect string, remove nail, add seat insert nut, tie 1/4 20 nut to end of string and pull through hole in fender, install plastic C Ring and you are done.
Note, keep a few of these seat mounts on hand as they strip out rather easily when you change seats out over time.
