Unique passenger seat
I saw what I think was a deluxe the other day with a seat that I'd LOVE to get my hands on. Hopefully someone on here has it, has seen it, orknows where to find it.
This seat was similar to a luggage rack but mounted to the fender struts. Four round bars went up from the struts to a platform/luggage rack type grill with a black passenger pad on it. The seat/rack was only a couple inches above the rear fender. Anyone heard/seen this? I'm getting custom paint and would love something like this if it's detachable.
Okay, I found this on the harley website: http://www.harley-davidson.com/gma/g...bmLocale=en_US
It's a luggage rack for solo seats. Anyone think this would support a passenger if I had a pillion made to fit it? I'd hate to find out it didn't by getting bent struts, fender, etc. The warning says it can't be used as a seat. So, my question now is what about it makes it too weak to do so? The mounting plates, bolts, lateral rigidity? If I could figure that out, I could always get one made to work.
