HD Brawler solo seat w/ C&C wide pillion **PICS**
I've been slowly trying to convert my solo bike into a 2up now that the wife wants to ride. I had pretty much talked myself into buying a C&C solo with a passenger pillion because I will still ride solo most of the time, but I needed to be able to convert to 2up when needed.
I really didn't want to get rid of my solo Brawler seat because I love the look and feel of it, but figured I would have to buy a whole new set up to get it to look right. I also didn't want to get any scuff marks on my fender.
I got to C&C and figured I would need to be moved back 1.5" from their "stock" location to get it comparable to my Brawler. Then we started talking about the pillion when the idea came up about just purchasing the pillion to use with my Brawler. I figured I could save a lot of $$$$ by going this route, but would it look good? Well, I took the plunge and think it turned out pretty good taking into consideration that the seat will not be seen when riding. They matched the leather top with vinyl sides.
I also had previously purchased an Anderson TP re-locator plate for when I was riding solo. When I went to put the TP on 2up, it seemed just a little more room was needed so I moved the TP back to it's furthest back position.
You can see the pillion matches up pretty good to the Brawler.
Couple side shots.
And a couple full shots.
The guys at C&C are great! Whenever the time comes when I get tired of the Brawler, I will definitely go back to C&C for a new solo.
