So how comfortable is the seat? The Wide Tripper? Share your experience, lastly have you modified or improved your suspension as well???

Well, even in short distance riding with my Iron, its a bit painful on the rear end. Sure I would like to look good as I ride but I have to make a decision on the matter wether looks or comfort is more important "OR" a lil of both would do the trick?

Honestly I wish that I could try them both out and make a final determination on the matter but if I purchase 2 individual seats that would be a too costly test

i have that mustang cafe seat. I like it a lot. better than OEM for sure. Plus it completes the look of my bike as I just converted it to a cafe-ish style.

I like it, it sits you a little lower and has plenty of softness as well as a little back support, when I ride two up I put on my Mustang wide touring seat which sits you higher and is not quit as soft. Both are much better than the stock seat.

My suspension is stock and set pretty stiff, when two up I need it stiff since I have an oversize back tire, suspension to soft and the fender hits the tire when two up.
