Bought this to replace my stock seat to get rid of the sissy bar, larger double stock sea and luggage rack for a more subdued rear end. The seat itself allows you to sit a little lower and is very comfortable. My wife won't ride in the winter so I won't be able to rate the passenger seat until later. Seat came with brackets that didn't match my stock seat. The front bracket opening had to be modified from an elongated openning to a circle. I used a Dremel. That sucked.

I purchased the Explorer Saddle. Service was great. Seat looked Great. But after installing I noticed the rear seat pan edges were resting on the rear fender. Would rub the paint . The passengers seat was at least 1 inch short around the back. Passenger sat to far forward so when leaning back on backrest it gave the feeling of sliding forward. The drivers seat felt good. I didn't have a chance to ride with the seat on. I decided to send it back. If these 2 things were changed, bigger passenger sitting, and get the rear seat pan edges off the rear fender. This would be a very nice seat for the price.
