Yeah, it's a little bit more comfy than the sportbikes, but when he was talking about touring two up and such, figured it would be a little less aggressive.

I was thinking the same thing, and with that slight hump it would help the passenger from sliding into the rider too. He's got a girl, so that would come in handy.

My bike has this hump on the passenger seat and it is as comfortable as you can get on a sportbike. The other factor on passenger comfort are the foot pegs placement and the tail section.

I've just been spoiled by the GS and expect higher levels of comfort now.

I'll prob get a Sargent seat for rider and passenger with a backrest for passenger.

yeah, that would work. I was going to go sargent, but I really want something I don't have to worry about comfort at all. So I bought a set of extra seat pans and shipped them off to Russell Day Long for custom made seats.

Never heard of it, but I'll look into it. This is all hypothetical at the moment anyway.

It's the king of custom seats according to advrider. No two seats are the same, they make them to your size/height. They look kinda goofy though. I will keep my stock seats for aggressive riding and put the day longs on for long trips.
