Default 2014 2 up seats?

Hey i have been searching for comfy yet stylish 2 up seats. Most of the threads are years old.. looking for some opinions on the seat you have owned for awhile or just got ??

I know everyone says mustang and sundowner for comfort.. but are there any others that arent sooo huge but are still somewhat comfortable? Like a everyday riding seat that would still be ok for a couple long trips a years.

I mainly ride my bike as a daily driver whenever its not raining. The stock solo seat is just not cutting it. I have a passenger pillion which the girl likes. But oh well.. i would like best of both..

I have the badlander seat on mine for a two up set up. Its pretty comfortable for my girl along with the quick detach sissy bar.

The cherokee is not my thing..

I like the look of the badlander, but i hear alot of people complain about it.. We are both small people, 5'6 165 and 5'5 130ish.
are the complaints false? or maybe people that are too big?

Dog, you're allowed as many seats as you want or need! So you can have a Sundowner or Mustang for those long days in the saddle when you want to be super comfy, and other seats for those more stylish moments when you want to make a statement. Don't try to combine everything into just one seat!

That C&C is nice.

True i can buy more seats but i am trying to save money and not spend it on the sporty. Trying to move to a street glide next year.

When you get your SG you will need a decent seat for your passenger! So don't try too hard with this bike, buy a Sundowner or Mustang, which you will be able to sell easily when you change bikes. You may find a secondhand one on Ebay and help save that way.
