What seat do you guys think is best for 2 up riding?

the DP seat is only $250, the corbin and sargent are really expensive but you can find deals on them every now and then.

Of course i thought about buying a 2nd gelpad and redoing the passenger seat. It would only cost $50 and i LOVE my modified gel seat, but the passenger section is very different. and $250 isnt much to pay for a nicer seat to begin with. mine is starting to have little mini tears and im sure it will need replacing in another year.

Sargent seats are not for passengers. There's not much padding for the passenger area due to the smugger tube.

nah, she broke up with me 2 months ago.  Cry

I just want to get a good seat for the next gf. My last gf was pretty tolerant and as long as we were hanging out witheach other she didnt care so she didnt say much.

So i guess for the next gf if she got on the seat and it was a comfortale ride, she would be more willinging cuase again my last gf wouldnt care as long as we were together doing something. Not going to find too many girls who are like that.

Im thinking if i do a gel pad, i could carve the seat flatter so you have more area to sit on, vs now where ur just sitting on sliver of seat.

The Corbin seat I have on my 900 is dished slightly for a passenger and offers a decent spot to sit. I had a Sargent seat for a while and liked it, but the passenger section didn't exist. Not only did the seat slope backwards (like the factory seat) but it didn't have ANY physical support under the passenger section. The passenger is literally supported by a thin piece of plastic that ends up resting on the tail light.

Did I mention my husband has absolutely zero interest in bikes.  None.  Nada.  The most I can hope for when showing him my latest mod is a "that's nice dear".

DML a dating service. laughingdp the story of El Matador and DesmoLu.


Back ontopic, make the beast with two backs the 2up seat. And make the beast with two backs getting back with the exgf because i didnt have a damn thing in common with her anyway. I feel better saying that. Im going to spend my money on another trackday.

Asking to meet a girl who is into motorbiking is too much. You can only be so fortunate to have a gf who shares at least some of your interest to begin with.

Sorry DML for hearing my 5 am broken heart rant.
