Default Two up seat!

Looking for a two up seat for my Softail Deluxe! The wife has expressed interest to ride with me on occasion! So I'm not looking to spend a bunch of money! Would appreciate some suggestions!
thanks
Rick
ps
this would be a backup seat for her!

If you value your wife's ***, don't go cheap!

I'm not planning to go cheap but I didn't want to go into the higher priced seats for the dozen times she might go with me! I'm happy she wants to ride with me but my last three bikes I have owned she might have gone 10 times!
thanks
Rick

Most comfy for a passenger. The Mustang Wide Vintage Touring
It's also 2 pc, so you can use it as a solo.

Mustang isn't cheap. If you want cheap, check ebay for stock take off seats. Good luck. If you asked and said money wasn't an option, I'd point you to Mustang. Even the Saddlemen I have the wife doesn't hate, but again, still expensive.

Also, you didn't mention what seat you currently have. Getting the pillion to match that seat would be the best solution.

Check with Mean City Cycles. They might be able to doctor your seat. Have used them several times and was very pleased.

If your using the stock drivers seat, check out the wide HD passenger seat. My bride is good with it. Easy off and on.

C&C are ok at best and horrible for any passenger, I had one on my Dyna, loved it. But when I ordered one for my Heritage, I sent it back.

Find a use wide HD pass pillion, over the winter send it to Mean City Cycles.

with a comfy seat she might go more - my wife`s *** meter kicks in at like 250 miles then she starts moving around, so what I noticed was she would ride then wouldnt for awhile...........then repeat & then it came down to she wants to ride until her rear end remembers - which is why she doesnt go all the time, I bought the Air hawk for her & myself and it made a difference - maybe try that route first? its a lot cheaper than a new seat.
