The comfort stitch seat that comes on the Ultra will also fit the Road King Classic. It has the widest passneger seat Harley makes. I put one on my RKC and the wife can ride forever now. Her problem was a broken tail bone years ago. No I'm serious she is only a size 10! Seriously!

funny reading this post my wife is only 115 lb and about 5ft 4 but I dont know what she does on the back of my e glide classic sometimes the bike feels like its 8 feet long I had her friend on the back the other day she is maybe 5ft7 and 140 but I didnt feel her on the back once on the ride .
the wife tends to step on the footboards to get on cause her legs are too short to reach over I guess but a couple times she has caught me off guard and just about dumped the bike.
I have to give her[the wife]a tune up every once in a while but I mostly ride solo so its no big deal.

Wow, how timely as it just so happens I'm getting ready to market my" Mammoth Petite Seat" for HD touring bikes. Just feast your eyes on the prototype model below. I'll be taking orders soon.



Ride well,

Jim

I'm falling over!

Had to get the girlfriend to read these, so I guess all the others know by now!

My X was 5-2 and maybe 115, when she was on the bike (rarely) it was a hard to ride, she was juststiff and uncomfortable.

The new GF is 5-5 130 and loves to ride! I need to reach back to make sure shes still on! I think some women just get it and ride.....

Ridden a lot of them women on the back over the years, oh sure, on the front, too, one time it was four at once, need to dig out that photo someday. They've been little girls, big girls and all the in betweens. Grasso is right, though, regardless of size, if they know how to ride, don't really know they are there as far as handling goes. Sure, maybe a little more pull on the engine depending on size, might need to sit a little different, but with a good passenger, the handling is pretty much the same for me as solo. Now, when you get a big girl that don't know how, leans out of the turns instead of in, stuff like that, well, it's best to make it a short ride .....
