Take it off every time someone wants to ride. In my opinion my bike looks stupid with my 2 up sundowner. But it takes
Me about 5 minutes to get off my spring seat and rack and replace it with my 2 up. Not a big deal.

The bike looks stupid with a "sundowner?" Is that so... Matter of personal opinion but many bikers prefer to have the option of having company, others don't. I don't believe that the sundowner looks "stupid" its a matter of taste and personal choice, not opinions... But spring seats look cool, depending again on your bikes setup...

I ran a suction cup p-pad for the times the wife wanted to ride behind me. I even had a custom pad made that slipped over the p-pad for those times we were long hauling. Popped it right off when she was not with me.
