Thanks man. Ya giving up the passenger seat was difficult to explain to the girlfriend. She thought I was doing on purpose because I didn't want to ride with her any more. That wasn't a fun "discussion" lol

Wow found this slim online. That is by far the most unusual 2-up setup I've ever seen. It's creative, I'll give him that

You could always add the rocker's strut extentions for passengers.
Here's a pic of jcslim's 2012 Slim.



hope this helps,

I totally wanted to but the dealer told me the rocker c frame was different and it wouldn't fit a slim! Did he have to modify them? And does harley still sell those? Heck I'll buy one today if they fit

Lets just say dealers will tell you things dont work when they
actually will. Maybe its because of liability... <shrug>

I believe jcslim is wanting to sell his 2012 Slim, so you might
contact him and ask if he's willing to part with his rocker trickseat
setup.

good luck,
