I have the standard vintage solo, 76107, and the standard pillion, 76109, with the quick detach sissy bar. The pillion and bar fit with no issues. I think the wife would like to have the touring pillion and it appears there would not be any fit issues with that either. Anyone want to make a trade?
Fitting the pillion initially took a little patience and persuasion but it is getting easier to remount now.

Watkins Glen with the wife loving the new(er) bike. She likes it better than my last three bikes.

Thanks Tepidy! How would you compare the seat level and comfort to the stock seat?

its night and day difference brother. You sit lower into the bike and the seat craddles you in and does not allow your *** to shift. It keeps you in a much better riding possition eleminating a lot of lowerback fatique as compared to the oem seat. The cushioning bar none is the best,you can ride all day without you *** getting numb. My opinion worth every penny and you will not find a more comfortable seat.

You cant even compare the mustang vintage to the stock seat. I have had mine on for over a year now. I bought the removable pillion for the wife and she absolutely loves it. I could only last about 100 miles on the stock seat before fatigue would set in. With the mustang, I can ride all day without any issues and the same with her. Just thought I would toss in my .02.
