R3 GT Pillion Seat

[MrPix]

Hi, I know it's been a while since you would've seen the seats. Do you remember if the comfort pillion seat was longer or shorter than the GT touring pillion seat?

The comfort pillion seat for the Sports driver seat ends in the same place at the back as the Touring pillion seat (std on the GT), it begins about 1.6” befor the back of the Touring driver seat, so will stick in your back. The fixing position is not adjustable

My wife hates being pillion on the GT. Worst bike I have had according to her. She is a petite 5ft so its not as if her legs are around her ears
Two hours was enough to put her off going on the back again. Great result!
In fairness we were planning to get a touring bike anyway so I made sure I got my Rocket GT first.

my wife is in the same situation, not a happy camper... but after testing the goldwin and the rocket... she knew I'll pick the rocket....

Anyone know a good 3D printer tech? Scan the OEM seat pan, make wider, then have custom seat made. I'd do it in an instant if my wife still rode with me....

Thanks a lot. That helps.

Has anyone got any feedback on the Airhawk option for the passenger on the GT? Two thumbs up from the wife or two thumbs down? Don't want to try that option if it doesn't pass the arse test
