Wink two up seat

What is a good two up seat for an 06 sporty. Was thinking of a pillow top type seat the wife's butt starts to get numb with the stock seat in short time. Open to ideas.

Thanks

I have the Sundowner. Wife doesn't ride, but the girlfriend loves the seat. It's MUCH better for the rider than the stock seat, so my butt stays happy also.

Alright thanks, Seen the HD pillow top for under $200.00 on line that is a lot less than the sundowner. Thanks again.

Check the classifieds in the lower section. There's a guy posting a sundowner w/low use for a 2007 Sporty. Asking $175. If I had the cash right now I'd be all over it. There are guys on the forum selling parts. Check it out!
