Default Heartland Second Seat Fix!!!! PICS

Here is a trial and error second seat set up. The first picture is what I thought would look good. My wife sat on in and thought it was to high. The first pic is 7''. The second picture is 5'' with a rack welded on the back. The chrome is what cost me the most. I was thinkin about doing it all black but I like the contrast. I love the way the final product came out and my wife does to. Just thought I would post pictures for you guys to see and maybe wanna try the same thing. I havent tryed the rack on the back yet but it is pretty big. I know its not the best picture but I do not carry my camera around with me. You get the idea.

The first rack had 5'' added onto the stock seat. The second seat had 2'' taken off which made it 5'' of round bar. The stock seat was to short. Blue if you have the seat and you punch it with your kind of engine with someone on the back I can promise you they will not be back there.

I don't think it looks too bad at all. Especially because it's only on when you have a passenger. The only suggestion I would make is pc it black it would flow way better on your bike but otherwise nice work.

HotRod your a Joke..... Beat it!!!.....

Jed I thought about it and I always have the option to do so. I have seen it done. Thanks though. I can not stand the sissy bar but for those that get women to ride with them know what they have to do. I use a P-Pad when on short trips.
