Realistically none of them are really good. Phantom makes an assortment of shapes and sizes but for the most part a suction cup seat is meant to be the bare minimum to classify as a seat. I mean yes, they can get by but be warned they're not very comfortable. My girlfriend hated the Phantom pad I had.

If your looking for the best for MAMA don't get a suction cup seat. I have one and MAMA hates it. So the old saying is true, IF MAMA AIN'T HAPPY YOU WON'T BE HAPPY EITHER.

Here's the one I had. Just the regular cheap one. Heck if you want it it's yours for $20 just to cover shipping.

The cups leave marks and to many is dangerous for the lady. The HD pillions literally come off with one bolt quickly and can be stored in a side bag o strapped to the sissy. Each to his own. Cheers.

I have the gel phantom pad and my old lady doesn't mind it too much. Granted, she doesn't go on any of the longer rides. She's usually fine for riding around for an hour or so.
