The stock speedmaster seat isn't in the same league as the america seat in terms of pillion comfort. The gunfighter speedmaster seat isn't really for riding 2up. Anything, including rolled up newspapers would be an improvement. That said, I purchased the speedmaster "touring" seat. It's better but still not as good as the stock america. If you don't go with Corbin or the few others who make seats for these bikes, get the america seat. Not to mention you can easily ditch the pillion and go for a single look when you want to.
