This is still my best option for me & a passenger!


Aussie,

I have been contemplating the bitch seat issue for a while now, and the bolt on pillion just don't work for me. Its like a sick growth stuck to the chrome, and it just don't flow with the lines of the bike for me.



it just don't flow with the lines of the bike,




so I'm leaving the OEM seat with da chrome swantz in tack and getting a Corbin gunfighter w/wildfire seat stitch and red flames, I think it works for me, the bike, and has a great custom look for a little over the price of the stocker.

Lookin very smooth Eagle, looks like its all about you though. Room for 70 beers & all that back support! The bitch seat looks good but where does she land her feet? (Or are the rear pegs stage 2 of this project) She also needs long legs (thats a bonus) to get around that pouch on the front of the bags.

Cheers

Aussie, yes I will be getting some rear pegs soon, I was trying to get the highway bar issue resolved and then buy two sets of matching pegs. the little pouch is a "hang on" so when I have a passenger, I can just pull it off and stow it in the big bag, as long as they are not full of BEER.  :bananarock:

I'm leaving the OEM seat in tack when I want to run solo and got a Corbin gunfighter w/wildfire seat stitch and red flames & backrest, for touring, I just came back from trying it out and i couldnt be happier.


If your lookin for quick detachable bags, check out Boss Bags when, you pull of the bags there is only two mounting posts on the strut very clean. yes you can use them with the detachable sissy bar as well.

look back, and you will find the original threads where they talk about the bags and the seat. I have my CVO brothers to thank for steering me in the right direction on both  :beerchug:  Thanks Bro's :beerchug:
thats what it all about, everyone helping each other expand their OCD  :2vrolijk_21:

Hunter,
looks like you have been MIA for more than a year! Welcome back. You must have been out clocking up miles on that fine example of a fat boy! As for your seat I'm not too sure what I think but I don't really think it is for me, looks like it gives your back support. Is that storage in the back? Surely you don't mount a passenger up there. But the bottom line is if you like it on your bike thats all that matters.

Cheers
Aussie
