Thats the "permanent" modification that I don't want to do. The bare rear fender is the look I want to keep. I don't think it looks bad at all, just not my style.

Thanks again for the help.

The Corbin dual tour seat (Google it) has a removable rider and passenger back rest. But its expensive and may only swap with a Corbin solo because of the mounting pin. Unless you drill a 3/4 inch hole in the non-corbin seat pan to allow for the mounting pin.

My bitch bar is quick release,I have a double seat that with the removal of one screw turns it into a solo seat. My bitch bar attaches to the rear lights and a small peg that is un-noticeable when the bar is off. In less than 5 minutes I can go from two up to solo street bob style. I got the 2 up/solo seat for sale. The h-d leather fender cover is included. Pm me with your email for pics. 50 bucks plus the ride

The permanent mod I was referring to was the HD fender rack.

Sending PM your way....

I looked at pads, detachable this and that and finally just bought a 2-up seat that mostly hangs on the garage wall. But when needed it's there and only takes a couple of minutes to put on. I don't care for the looks of the 2-up seat but when she's on the back...who cares.

I was in the same situation - wanting to keep my Street Bob look streamlined but also be able to switch it up quickly and easily. 9 times out of 10, I ride with my stock solo seat which is plenty confortable for any riding less than 200 miles. If it's a longer trip or if I have a passenger, I can quickly swap out the solo seat with my Sundowner seat. I then add a quick-detach sissy-bar/luggage rack. This setup works great for me.

Don't matter which way you go, any Harley seat can be changed in virtually seconds.
