I have Silouettes in both solo and 2 up, without gel. They're good for about 150 miles or so. They're both for sale if anyone is interested. They'll fit 86-99. I just changed the back part of my bike and put Heartland struts on with the removable rear seat w/ sissy bar and got a Danny Gray solo to match it.

turtle, no my front TS's are mounted where the crash bar would bolt to the frame
but i can't take credit for the idea got itfrom a member in the night train forum just take off
mounts on down tubes and use what you got hardest part was the wires. Note fender helps
stop rocks and stuff from hitting them.
Bare Bones --- my train an 05 the 06 switched to a 200 tire bigger fender the seats mounts
different mine bolts to the hole right in front the fender struts.A 06 and up mounts on the back of the seat and is going to be higher then mine witch, yourswould mount with a thumb screw same as it does now so it will look a little thicker but prob more comfortable. the back of the seat comes up a little higher hope this helps youlepera to me looked like the best quality stiching and style. and i took that clear sticker off i used Goo Gone for the sticky suff

I'm not real concerned about comfort. I ride 7miles each way to work, usually any longer rides are w/my wife so the sundance goes on. This will actually work perfect for her because I will be less apt to make her suffer w/the badlander on intermidiate rides.
