The new 07 pillion is much better from what I am told. (I have never been on the back) I have seen it and it looks much more comfy but I think it also looks ugly.

The Triumph Touring seat on the Speedmaster gets rave reviews from my wife. She can sleep on the thing!
Throw a sheepskin butt pad (NOT GEL!) on there and you're good to go all day long.

I have the touring seat on my bike, never have had any complaints from passengers, even after a couple hundred mile day.

Just spent 1271.00 on corbin's all leather solo seat and passenger pillion and matching backrests there beautiful my wife loves hers but the solo seat puts my right leg to sleep. I had more money than sense, now I'm out of both.

How did you get a backrest for the passenger pillion?

Take your backrest off, it's making you sit too close to the tank.

The backrest for pass/pillion mounts on the triumph sissy bar it's a little larger oval shape and momma likes it. I don't use the solo backrest I just bought that to give my wife somthing to hold on to.
