Hate to hijack but I have been wanting to get the day tripper but have been reluctant cuz of my PCV tuner under the seat. anybody have tuners under their trippers? do they fit?

I rode my sporty from BC, Canada to New Mexico on the Mustang wide vintage touring last summer and it was fantastic. Do yourself a favor and get the driver backrest model, you'll be glad you did! I know I was.

Yeah my big *** tuner fits under the tripper just fine. Keep in mind my ECM is in my fender so don't know if yours is the same. The performance shop actually stuck it to the underside of the seat LOL. It's the Sundowner that gives me issues. I've now figured out where to leave the tuner for both seats to fit.

I have the Mustang Vintage two up.
I can ride morning to night on that seat!
Literally, no pain in the A**

Asking which seat is most comfortable is like asking which shoes are most comfortable, I've had at least 5 seats on my bike and I found an ancient Corbin solo that finally did the trick, just wide enough and the right firmness.
All I'm saying is it's a crap shoot finding the one that works for you.
