Look at a pull off Fat Bob seat. Works good with a low sissy bar. I paid $65 for mine.

 

Ive also heard that the Phantom pads are pretty decent for shorter rides.

 

Luke, what are you running in the photo above (seat/sissybar)? I too am looking to [finally] get my wife and kids on the bike and am looking for options. I like what you have going on in your picture.

 

Sundowner also. May not look the best but sure is comfortable.

 

My 06 SB is still set up for Solo, bags are mounted so no place for a Back Rest, couldn't bring myself to add the passenger posts for pegs....just looks to good settin there set up Solo.

GF keep wantin to ride and buggin me about a seat so I bought a Corbin Dual Tour Sturgis seat that just happened to have a Fatboy under neath it....Problem solved

I just happen to have a new set of HD Chrome Passenger peg mounts....still in the box, if you are interested.

I switch back and forth between the 2011 SB solo seat and a Mustang Wide touring 2-up seat. The 2-up is very comfy and wide. My wife did NOT want to sit on a 7inch wide pillion. I also added a quick detach backrest and passenger footpeg extensions so she could stretch out since she's 5'8". The footpeg extensions put the pegs at some weird angle at first but that was solved with a bit of grinding. Now everyone is happy!
