I meant swap it on every time she rides, not permanently.

I found a Sundowner on ebay for $180 shipped. I can tell you my wife LOVES IT. Me, I prefer the lower seating position of the stock solo better. I suggested getting another 2 up seat and she wouldn't hear of it.

I don't mind swapping them out so much, but I'd rather not. So I've sent my Sundowner to MeanCityCycles.com to get modified. They are reshaping it to be more like the solo and adding memory foam. I've got high hopes. I'll do a full write up when I get it back in a week or two.

I have one on my sporty along with the mid backrest. My passengers say it's okay. They get a bit of a numb bum after a hour or so though.

The wife informed me today that it's not the seat that bothers her, but rather the suspension and the overall size of the bike - she just doesn't feel comfortable (mentally, not physically) being on a smaller bike. Well well well....just the ammo I may need.
