Here is where I got them.

They also sells the non Gel ones for a fair amount cheaper.

Shipping was fast and everything went smooth. The cost of shipping was a little high imho though. They were both in the same box, but they charged me both the seperate shipping fees. If you do order there maybe ask if they will combine to give you a better price.

Do you think that rear pillion will mount to a stock Slim seat? I'm just trying to figure out a way to my the g/f a little more happy on rides. Also does the Gel make a big differences?

24v I always contacted the seller of the Danny Grey seat, they said the rear pillion would be able to mount a stock seat because it uses a suction cup. Only problem is Suction cups won't stick to matte paint. So there goes that plan, back to square one.

SlimJeff- The seat feels slightly higher than the stock seat, but I don't think it is any different from front to back. When I say slightly, we are talking maybe 1/2". Not enough to bother me.

24v,
Thanks for the info, last question promise.
Does it offer more sliding back support than stock , I mean when you hit the gas does it help at all keeping you from moving back ?
Every time I hammer it I feel like Im gonna slide back

I bought the back crack solo and pillion for my slim and am very happy however mine doesn't have the gel and I wish I had spent the extra $100 or so as i am assuming the gel is much more comfortable. So far longest ride with it is 50 miles and no complaints from the old lady. I was a little surprised to see that it only secures to the bike with suction cups in the front. Does anyone one have any input on that?

I realize this is a little dated, but I'm looking to put this seat on a denim slim and was told by Danny Gray that the suction cups wouldn't work. Did you mod your seat or bike? Or does the suction just work well enough that it't not really an issue?
