Silly question, but, what's the difference between the gunfighter seat and the roadster seat? Both look like the same seat.

Also, does anyone have a pic of the Touring seat on their America/Speedy that also has a sissy bar on the bike? I've seen a pic or two and from the angle, it appears the Triumph sissy bar is a bit too far back and the passenger would lean back quite a bit. Is there a sissy bar and sits closer/more forward?

Here is the tall back rest with touring seat. The woman loves it, says it doesnt feel as far back as it looks

Here's mine with the short sissy bar and touring seat. My other half likes it a lot.

The gunfighter seat has a pointy finish at the pillion end while the roadster seat is more rounded at the pillion end.
?


What it can't reach it spits at.

Hey Moe, what's the rider's seat on that Cardinal? Is that a Corbin with the backrest?

Yeah, the gunfighter, according to the woman, doesnt have a pillon. The roadster is simular in pillon thickness maybe a little thicker, but has a much wider seating area. If you have a loved one I wouldnt recommend putting them on the gunfighter seat

My fiance took one look at the stock seat and asked, "What, are you going to try to get rid of me?"

Thanks for the photos guys. We got the Touring seat and she loves it so far. Haven't done any long rides, but so far so good. Haven't gotten a sissybar yet. I want to see what's out there first.
