Default Passenger touring pillon

Does anyone have the new touring passenger pillon on their Heritage? I'm wondering if it is that much better than the stock pillon or if I should just go with a Mustang. I've a gift cert for the local dealership that I need to use up and the old lady would be much happier if her butt wasn't as sore after a couple hundred miles.

I have the touring pillion on my 06 Heritage. I put it on when I bought it, so my wife doesn't know how it compares to the stock one. She does like the touring one, however. If your old lady's butt is still sore after a couple of hundred miles, just stop and rub it!!

I have it on mine...the only one that has ridden any distance on it is my daughter..she said she liked it because it was a bit wider and the touring backrest is curved to fit better.

I have a Springer Classic.
My sweety had a sore butt over 50 miles with stock pillion.
200 miles with touring pillion she fell asleep on me.
Maybe it was too comfortable. [sm=wtf.gif]

I got a wider one on mine and my wife loves it. It's wider and seems softer also.
