i tried a narrow style passenger pillion in the form of the Saddlemen brand.... wife could only stand it for running around town. we sat on a softail with a daytripper mustang seat on it, and i got the "nope"! i put on a mustang vintage with drivers back rest, and ordered the passenger today. we sat on a lowrider with a mustang vintage seat combo today (no drivers backrest) and just from sitting on the show room floor, she said "oh hot dam! that's much better!"

looks are cool to an extent.... till i hear yappin in the ear about comfort.... i'll sacrifice some cool points for my comfort and especially hers! as i had read, as well as been told by quite a few people, the mustang seat is a top notch seat!

I would not have any other setup, and yes I have tried many before. Solo seats look great, they suck for endurance.
