Sorry but I don't totally agree with that..

Did U get her anything back there to help her or is it still stock..

Reason why I ask.??

When our Heritage was new, wife could only do 1/2 hr or so in stock form.

After I got her the Touring seat, Touring Sissy bar Pad with Detach and FloorBoards at the 1k service, she can now go as long as she wants to. We've done many 4-5hr daily rides when we go eat somewhere and she can do 2-3 hrs straight easy.
Major diff with her riding time after the Mods/changes I did for her back there.
