Pillions with suction cups
What kind of pillion with suction cups are you running with your solo seat?
Any issues with the passenger slipping around?
Finally, any paint scratching issues?

Thanks for the help.

RE: Pillions with suction cups
I \\;tried one of these and I found that they dont work at all. My wife sat on it fĂśr about 2 min and we could see right off that it was NOT going to work.
I dont know if a \\;used one would be better or if it would be better with time but the one I had didnt fit the shape of the rear fender well so not all the suction caps sat hard on the fender.
Just my experience

I had one one my Bad Boy and it was great. Stuck good and didnt leave any marks. I took it off and would clean the section so it wouldnt scratch. I think it was called a P Pad cant remember who makes it.

I got one off ebay and it arrived this morning. \\;It looks great on the bike and seems to stay put. The only problem is that my wife took one look at it and I was back to putting the stock seat on to take her out tonight. \\;Needless to say she was not impressed with the suction cup idea.

Yeah, that is what I am worried about. \\; I sold her on the idea of a solo as long as I got the pillion pad to go with it. \\; I forgot to mention that it stays on, or doesn't, with suction cups. \\;
Anyone with good reviews on a specific brand?

RE: Pillions with suction cups
About two years ago a gal was riding on the back sitting on one of those and it fell off,
they were riding on the freeway and a semi was behind them. she left two kids behind.
i wouldn't put anyone i cared for on one of those.
