Hello - I found this pic on the WindVest website. Does anyone know where this person found that passenger seat? Thanks:

It's definitely a standard 07+ seat. I put one on my '05 for my wife. The bag is a T-Bag glove bag.

Bob, how much did the seat cost you? I'm in the process of getting an '05 myself and I know the girlfriend would better enjoy the '07 seat.

I paid about $180 for my 07/08 passenger pillon seat from my local dealer. However, I have my earlier Triumph Touring Pillon passenger seat which I will sell for $50. My wife did not feel much difference between the two. Both are much much better than the original passenger seat, which was about as comfortable as a wooden board!

I got mine for $125. I'm not sure what the list price is. Some companies sell accessories 10-15% off. The one I bought came from Coweta (no longer sells Triumph). You need to check with a few different places and be sure they quote the pillion that is stock on '07 and later Americas. It is definitely larger than the previous seats available. It's smaller at the front, larger at the back, and sits up an inch higher in the back. My wife absolutely loves it.

Yeah, the '07 seats are definately nicer than the rectangular '05 ones. It won't be long before I'm told to upgrade it; hence, doing the research now.

Well after 2 years owning the America.My wife finally complained about the stock p-pad. We put about 250 miles on it sunday. She made me stop twice so she could get some feeling back in her tush.So looks like I'll be looking to get my hands (and her azz) on an 07/08 p-pad.
The percentage you're paying is too high-priced
While you're living beyond all your means
And the man in the suit has just bought a new car

I have the stock 07 seat and my wife hates it. Maybe if I started out with the speedie seat she would like it better. I need to get her a gel pad.
