Hey looking for a comfy 2 up seat for my 02 FLHT. Have a pillow top now. Looking for something a bit "sharper" looking, but want to be able to ride for miles as well. The misses' comfort is VERY important. If her seat hurts, then my seat will hurt from hearing about it. What are some ideas??

Narley-need a little more "personal" info. How tall & how much do you and your misses weigh? Also, as a rule of thumb, the more comfy the seat, the uglier the seat.

I know there is a happy medium out there. Well mine now looks like a 10" thick mattress. I am sure many of the members ride 2 up and have style and comfort.

had the same issue, numerous seats, covers, reworks, pillows, finally tried the Harley Hammock seat a friend had, it is butt ugly. Did a 200 mile ride, wife loved it, so I bought it. No more complaints from the back, if your looking for comfort and style the top photo is comfort. Did i mention it was butt ugly? I normally attach a TourPak to conceal some of seat, when we stop I toss an old Coon Skin cap on the seat.

I'm fond of my C&C with custom extra wide pillion......
C&C seats look great. They're a firm seat though, so if you like a 'cushy' feeling seat, you may not like them.

The sundowner is very comfy but very good looking because it's too big. I also have c&c sport tour and we like it. Give c&c a call and tell your sizes and weights and they can make suggestions from there. Also they mAke the seat custom for you with many options and they give 10% forum discount too.

Had a Mustang touring seat on my 02 Ultra and put one on my 06 RG.

My 11 RGU....the stock seat is awesome.

Sundowner for me. It's big but it has a smooth cover so it's not as ugly as a pillow top IMHO
