Default Qst for those who ride 2 up ?

Well the wife is finally coming around to the idea of heading out on rides with me. (no she doenst want to get her own bike) So I have a HD 2 up seat & med back rest with foot pegs. Thinking of changing out to floorboards for her.



So those of you who ride 2 up what ideas & changes have you made to make a better ride ?

As always thanks

Yea I've got a big a$$ ugly 2 up seat for the long trips and a badlander for the short ones. I put a backrest that I had made out of square stock with a pad on it and just the stock pegs. She's a good girl who loves bikes almost as much as me and she doesn't complain much. We rode the tail of the dragon together and she had a blast. Good luck with your setup.

Get her out on some short rides first and make sure she is wanting to go on longer ones before you start shelling out a bunch of $$$$.

Ditch the sissy bar! For what the bike costs, you should get to enjoy the ***** pressed on your back!

Seriously though, I have to agree with the last post about taking lots of short rides first to see that she is/can be comfortable.
