Default 2-up seat

Thinking on buying a two-up seat for my bones.

1.Sidekickseat for stretched fuel tanks nr.:51814-06A catalogue 2009
2.Sidekickseat nr.:51387-06A catalogue 2010
3.Danny Gray Weekday 2-up

Who has one of these seats installed and especially my intrest is the comfort for the passenger. Whats the difference between the 2 sidekicks?
Pictures would be very appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Well, the first sidekick you listed is the one you use IF you have the HD stretched fuel tank. Simply put, if you have the stock tank, its NOT the one you want. I have a Badlander seat on my Crossbones, There aren't going to be too many seats that look really good AND offer a hole lot of comfort. My OL has never complained about the P-pad on my seat, which probably isn't a whole lot different than the Sidekick. But she doesn't do many of the longer rides with me....

Bret,

Thanks for your reply. Did not know that there were any gastanks streched by Harley. You get a kind of gap between the tank and seat number 1?
Could you show me a pic of your bike with the badlander.
It looks almost te same like seat 2.
