Functional passenger pillion for Slim?
Hey guys,
It is a while that I have been looking for a passenger pillion with an integrated backrest for my Slim..but nothing so far!
We all know that the Slim is not designed for 2 ups and long rides in the first place (despite is a very modulable bike and very comfortable with the right seat) and it's beauty is in the simplicity of its lines..however, it is nice to just throw a passenger pillion in a sec to enjoy a 2 up ride.
The very best would be to get a passenger pillion with an integrated backrest! As simple as that. This would avoid expensive and probably not so good looking side plates and sissy bars with the relative (silly) relocation kits...
Is anyone aware of something like that?? Mustang does it for different bikes and HD touring models (pic attached).
It would really be a nice, fast and complete solution that I'd love to have.
Thanks folks.
Ride safe

Thank you very much for answering.
Since it is a popular, reasonable and useful feature it would make sense to develop it. I was also thinking that some 2 ups seat, like the Sundowner from HD, has a very large base and yet designed for the Slim/Blackine and the thinner rear tire, just like most of the harleys which did not have a wide tire not too long ago.
Would it be an existing one than can fit the Slim? Say one designed originally for a Fatboy?
