My wife has been complaining about the passanger pillion on my Harley Davidson Herritage. I obviously need to find her something more comfortable. I've been looking at a p-pad by Corbin that is exactly the same dimensions as the stock standard that came with my Herritage. Corbin makes a much better seat than Harley but I don't know if it will make a big difference. Harely D. makes a wider pillion made for longer trips. The HD pillion is $100.00 cheaper than the Corbin. Any suggestions???

My advice? Spend the money and get the Corbin.

HD may make a wider Pillion seat, but if it is made the same way as the stock one then there won't be much improvement as it will likely still be too stiff to be comfortable.

Perhaps head up to the Harley showroom and get her to sit a few different types of pillion seat and see which she likes best.Then try and get one similar to her favourite one.The great thing about Harleys is there are so many aftermarket products availble.

J & P Cycle has a "comfy saddle" pillion seat extender for $100. I found one used on the net that I bought. When I get it i'll let you know how well it works.

When a passenger rides on a motorcycle, there should be a suitable passenger (usually called pillion) seat with an associated back rest.

Found this looking for bike seats, thought it was interesting to know what a pillion was.

Yeah....leave her at home....

BUT SERIOUSLY! What's wrong with the standard rear seat? (pardon the Pun) There should be no need to buy another one.

Is your Heritage a classic? If so, there is nothing wrong with that seat at all as it has HEAPS of padding which will cater to Big & Small Bottoms. I had a Heritage Classic for 11 years & sat on the front & back with no worries.



Perhaps your wife is just used to good seats & hasn't experienced really BAD ones....frankly I'm amazed.

Maybe she's ready to ride her OWN bike & this could just be a Big Hint?

Finally got to use the comfy saddle today and my girlfriend gives it 2 thumbs up. We were out all afternoon and she had no complaints. I love getting products that actually work.
