For all of you that have the Switchback, how does it handle and the comfort level for two up riding? Do you like the stock rear shocks?

 

So far so good, I just adjusted them from two to four with a passenger so far. Worked out well. Still had two more positions on the rear shocks if needed. Had about 430 pounds worth of people on board and both saddlebags were full of winter gear.

 

I leave em on 2. with 450 on it.. it handles great..

 

How is passenger seat comfort?

 

all the girls , that i pack around like this seat better than my old st. bob, and eventually i will change the shocks out for progressives, the shocks are fine but you cant beat the ride with progressives..

 

I changed from an 09Nightster with mustang touring seat and 1" over progressive shocks (huge improvement). Stock FLD rear seat is the same width but my girlfriend she's much more comfortable, now having a medium low sissybar with 12 wide backrest is a big part of that, and more front to back room as well. With the sporty you really felt a passenger when it came to handling, not so at all with the FLD. I plan to put on either the HD signature seat or mustang touring either will give 12.5 width on the rear seat.

 

my chick hits the back of her calfs on the bag lids.
she has her own bike and doesn't ride with me much or I would add the adjustable passenger pegs the windshield is too short there is a lot of wind in her face
other than that not bad
