Agree with the highway bar/foot peg addition. I put those 360 degree pegs on my engine guard and now have 5 different foot positions, 6 if you count laying my ankles over the peg brackets (without changing anything around), which in my case is essential for comfort. Sorry I can't help with a seat rec...my bike is solo with stock seat that feels great to me...if a C130 would fly over every couple hundred miles and refuel me I'd never have to get off the bike....well, guess I'd need a Foley catheter too.
thanks for the crashbar input.. I am honestly happy with my seat, but everyone says
replace it.. trust me

On my Lo I have ridden all my miles on the stock seat and I like it a lot. Even after riding for 5 hours straight I was good to go, had to stop for gas and food then rode 3 hours more and still comfortable.
I did put 12" Fat Min-Apes on her and they made a huge difference in riding comfort from the stock bars. Instead of leaning over the tank I am more upright and reclined. If you have the cash I would say change the bars before you change the seat.
I have not gone with an engine guard because I seem to scrape the floorboards regularly with the hills and sharp corners around here and the engine guards would likely scrape too. I have been eyeballing some whiskers, not sure yet though.

I think the seat deal depends on the build of the rider. I ain't got the *** to fill out the stock seat but the Corbin solo fits me perfect. Also got the detach p-pad that matches but prefer to run it solo.

I put the Lindby multibar on my Lo; I scrape the floorboards often but as far as I can tell the bar hasn't scraped. the problem I have with the multibar is that the right side built in foot rest is a little too far inward so my knee hits my heavy breather unless I lay my foot sideways...but I see that as just another foot position option lol.
