Sargent seat comfort for passanger

All,

I've read a lot of good things about the Sargent seat for the Superhawk. I'm looking to purchase one before the spring riding season. Is there a noticable comfort increase for the passenger also?

Does anyone have a pic of the Sargent seat with the black welt?

Thanks,
Bruce

I have a Sargent seat but have never ridden as a passenger. My GF thinks it's pretty comfortable though. Did add a Triboseat cover (off ebay) that keeps her sliding into me every time I stop.

I will have to look into the Triboseat cover. That's the only issue I have with my GF on the back is when she slides into me at stops. Does the back seat cowl still fit with the Tribo seat cover on?.

Well, it fits... But since it's absolutely non-slip, which includes the cowl... It's a PITA to remove/install the cowl with it in place...

It's a lot easier to store the triboseat first... Takes less time too...

Never heard of the triboseat before. Have a Corbin with backrest. My gf and I love the seat, but she slides into me as well. Messaged triboseat on ebay to see if they make one for it.

About the sliding issue, is everyones pasenger putting their hands on the tank when stopping? I used to have the sliding problem with my wife until she started putting her hands on the tank. When she would ride on twisty roads with me she would keep her hands on the tank until there was a straight away she could slap me so I would slow down.

With her hands on the tank wouldn't she hit her helmet against yours?

I don't have a problem getting the cowl on/off with the triboseat on. I've had it on since last spring. GF learned to ride with her hands on the tank but is alot more comfortable with the triboseat holding her in place. Shipping took less than a week.
