Your friends may be referring to a fender bib, which is what I have on my 2009 Fat Boy

Do you plan on taking long rides with a passenger or even have a passenger? Things to consider before you make any purchases.

he maybe talking about the bib. It really isn't for passenger riding, as my wife rarely comes with. So its more of a stylish thing.

I was thinking I'd just throw on the stock pillion seat for when she wants a ride (which is like once a season)

A bitch pad traditionally refers to a passenger pillion, like a suction cup passenger pad.
