Pillion Comfort Additions?
#1



Took my partner on her first real ride on the bike. Stock seat. OEM luggage rack. No back rest. An hour out, picnic by the ocean, and an hour back. 25% city, 75% coastal highway.

She managed fine and loved the feel of the CB, but said that was about her limit. Reported that the seat is comfortable and roomy enough, but that her legs were a bit scrunched up, causing achy knees and hips after about a half-hour in the saddle. Interestingly, she said that despite the cramped knees, the smoothness of the CB's ride was threatening to lull her to sleep.

Can anyone who goes two-up on the regular recommend any modifications for passenger comfort? On my old RE Interceptor 650 the Hepco and Becker passenger peg relocator kit did wonders for her ride time on that bike.

Thanks!
