My wife started back riding with me this March following a discectomy last August. She said the Freewheeler passenger seat is a little lacking in passenger comfort and is.concerned about touring on it. I love the trike and I'm hoping to find a solution to make the seat more comfortable for her. Anybody have a suggestion besides trading for a Triglide? I can't afford one and would definitely take a financial beating on a trade.

 

We have the sundowner seat with a passenger backrest and the wife loves it. I have heard that Mustang and Corbin make seats for the Freewheeler as well. The stock seat totally sucks for the passenger!!!

 

Maybe check with your dealer (or other dealers) to see if they have any demo seats you can try?

 

Another name to look at is Ultimate. Had one on my VTX and it was very comfortable...

 

+1 on the Ultimate. I know they are making a seat for the Freewheeler.

 

Same here on a VTX 1300. Ultimate only made the Low and the Big Boy seats for that bike. Low was not for me and I scored a good used Big Boy and had a local seat guy cut it down a little (kinda made a Mid out of it) and that was a great seat for me and wife liked her perch as well.

 

Before spending $ on a seat, I would give an airhawk a try. I believe they have a 30 day money back, so it if does not do the job, then send it back and look at different seats.

I used to get different seats, or have them re-worked, until I discovered the airhawk. It really makes a big improvement for me.

 

just installed a Sundowner seat on our 15 FW. I like it and my wife says its WAAAY better than the stock seat.....for what its worth
