My wife thinks the high one is WAY more comfortable than the low and sissybar bags and backrest bags work better with the high. I agree the low may look better, but it's a form vs. function thing. I think the bike looks best of all with a solo seat and no sissy bar. If you're going to be riding 2-up a good bit, get an opinion from your rider sitting on the bike and go with what makes you happy.
