My wife and I did a 200 miler today....it was her first, just a few minutes under 4 hours of saddle time. Needless to say, she'll be joining soon and signing in under the aka of "Oh My Ass!" The pillion seat has always been suitable for her for the shorter jaunts we've ridden but after today's run, I have orders to make the change...whatever that change may be, as long as it's comfortable.
I now Sargent sells a pillion seat as a package type deal with there riders seat. I have a Sargent but bought it second hand so the pillion wasn't an option. I'm gonna check with them on availability and price but I have never seen anybody here discuss the attributes of a Sargent Pillion seat specifically.
Who has one and can you provide me with some info on it's comfort, please?
Secondly, anyone ever had there pillion seat redone like maybe by that "Great Day to Ride" guy? I'd love to hear about that. Since it's pretty cheap, I'd probably try to have both seats I have redone by them just to compare the riders seat to my Sargent. As far as I'm concerned, the OEM seat is worthless to me. I couldn't spend more than 20 minutes in it without a great deal of discomfort.
I'm open to any other ideas to help keep the wife's butt happy, please chime in if you have constructive feedback.
