Default Cross Bones 2-up seat

I'm looking for a 2-up seat that would look good on the bones. I have the passenger pillion but it looks like *** so I won't leave it on all the time and its a pain in the **** putting on if the wife and I get the urge to hop on and go. The wife has this air pad that we got from J&P that is comfy so it doesn't have to have alot of padding considering 90% of the time I ride solo.

Anyone got any suggestions? I'm open to anything you guys got. I was looking for a pic of one with the badlander seat but couldn't find anything.

I saw this Corbin seat on a new XBones at the Mrytle Beach Spring rally. It looked good and comfortable and had the option of the driver QD backrest. Jerry

Also, here is another one I saw in a dealership. It is the stock FXSTC Softail Custom seat on the XBones. I don't like the looks of it, but that is just my 2 cents....but is another option for you. Jerry

IMO XB and passenger seat don't mix

you can mount any fat tire softail seat on the XB... but it changes the whole look...

Cheesecake, that is true, but what do you do with the wife? They don't like sitting on the cold fender, plus it is too slick and they might fall off I guess you could weat the T-shirt then that says: "If you can read this the B...fell off"

I guess i am one of the lucky ones...
my wife went through the Riders Edge program... after she completed it she told me that she has no desire to get on a motorcycle again.... to dangerous!
I did have to increase my life insurance policy....and now when I'm gone for the day riding she goes shopping....

Sidekick is the 2-up Brawler i have on mine...i think it has a little more padding than the Badlander(i've seen pics somewhere)...

Brawler is ok...a friend of mine bought one too, then got the Corbin and likes it better...i'm goin' to have a little denser padding put in mine...
