My Danny Gray pillion on my Blackline had 1 bolt, and some suction cups. It worked fine. Pretty sure bitchin seats uses suction cups on the pillion as well. They use velcro to hold the front seat on, so I don't know what you would bolt the pillion to.

Good point about the Bitchin Seats. I'm sure the suction cups are fine but it still seems a little sketch. If DG doesn't come out with a better option I'll either refab my stock seats or do the custom thing.

You will like it. I've seen it (pre-fab)and it looks spot on. Give them a few days before doing anything.

As for them cutting it short by the tank, they will do that for you. Just call and talk to Sherry. She has the measurements.

Here is a pic of me riding it so you can see how I sit on there.
Thanks a lot, the pic helps a lot.
Most appreciated

Again beautiful bike, Nicely done.

I took this picture of my bars for a guy but you can see my front seat and backrest in it fairly well. I had the passenger seat and backrests done to match too, that Gelfoam is awesome.. Good luck and keep us posted on what route you choose.

Just think how dirty that seat would get if you actually rode the bike.
