After reading a lot of reviews on this site, I am planning on ordering 2 Alaska Leather Sheepskin seat covers. After doing a search, it looks like the medium will fit the stock America seat, but what pillion type works for the stock pillion set-up? Does anybody have the specifics or any other experience with these?

Hey Andrew, I've got the medium buttpad for my stock seat, and it works just fine. Don't have a pillion pad, but if you've got the newer style I think the small would be pretty close.

One last question. Could somebody give me the seat dimensions for the older type pillion seat to confirm pad compatibility? All I need is estimated length and width. Still separated from my bike so I apologize for the mundane task.

The rear pillion pad is about 12" long and 9" wide. I just measured mine. I just ordered one of those a few weeks ago. It got here in about 4 days from Alaska. Great service! You might consider the one with gel if you do long trips. I kind of regret not getting that one but it is about twice the cost.
