I would like to change the seat since a feel that harley making the original seat as a torturing seat but I don't know what to buy and I want it to take a passenger. So any Ideas ?

 

Nice bike. Welocome to the forum.

There are a multitude of choices of seats, many say the HD Sundowner is comfortable, especially for a passenger.

 

I use a Mustang Vintage Solo and love it. Have ridden about 15-18K on it now.

I ordered a quick connect passenger pillion to go on the rear fender. I normally ride 1 up and the rear is for when I road trip. I add a sissy bar and a tour pack.

I have found this is the most convertable set up for my needs.

Solo seat for everyday and overnights. Fender bid on rear fender.

2 screws to add a motherwell rack for a small bag for a couple day trips.

Passenger seat and sissy bar with my tour bag for longer trips.

 

I'm rocking a wide glide seat on mine, and it's perfect for me and my wife. She has shorter legs, (5'2") and wanted a lower profile seat. We can easily do 75-125 miles with no breaks.

See the pic:

 

How about showing pics of various configurations?

 

Let me dig some up. May take some time.

Solo with fender bib.


Solo with Motherwell rack and bungee cord bag. For when I have to carry more than I can stuff in my jacket.



Passenger seat added.



And with the "permenent" mount sissy bar and passenger pegs put back on. I only had this pic with the stock seat but the Mustang and passenger work out the same.



Adding the rack or passenger seat takes less than 30 seconds.

Adding the sissy bar and rear pegs takes about 20-30 minutes because I use a hard mount. If you used a quick detach it would be much faster. I use the bar and rear seat for multi day hauls. Rack hold a roll up bag good for 2-3 day rides.

 

Nice and versatile. Each variant looks good.

 

Hi Toypuller, is that pillion the 9" Mustang Vintage Standard rear seat or another model?

 

Had a sundowner on my sportster, awsome and comfortable seat.
They tend to be a little wider for the passenger, my gf always thought it was pretty comfy.

 

I am really thankfull for your participation and help all of you.

Toypuller,
you have a nice kit for almost everything from city to long ride, good luck.

DSnoopy,
my freind told the same as what you did. Is it really comfy for both city and long ride cuz I ride for 300KM each 2 days?
