Default 2 Up Seats

Im looking for a decent seat for my 05 1200Rso my G/F can ride comfortably, that stock seat just dont cut it even for short rides. I have looked through the H/D catalog and like the Sundowner. Any suggestions are welcome.

A lot of people here have the Sundowner and swear by it. You should also check out Mustang, Corbin and C&C. People have good things to say about them as well. I have the stock seat on my sporty and will probably keep it. I thought about getting a Sundowner, but I don't find the stock seat to be that uncomfortable...and thwe more I look at the Sundowner, the more it just looks ugly to me.

I just got the sundowner a few weeks ago and my wife went riding with me for the first time 2 days...she seems to think the sundowner is quite comfortable

Ditto that, and Mustang makes a nice seat as well. You can pick up a used Sundowner on EBay for around $200, more or less.

I have a Sundowner that I use only for longer rides and 2 up.It is big and ugly,but super comfy.Besides,you can't see the seat
when I'm on it.

I've had the sundowner for about 1 1/2 years now and think it's great. No desire to try any others.
