Ok, I'll have to have a look and sit with the wife on the back. Have seen a beautiful trident for just shy of 2k.
Managed to get off work early so popped down to triumph, they have a '10 bonnie and a new t100 that they are willing to let me use for a few hours, also said I could use their speed s rather than mine to get a feel for the difference! Just the ticket...weather depending will pop over next weekend.
Use a Pillion Pal cheap as chips, used to take my kids out a lot. They felt much more confident using the PP (was on a busa mind)
My wifes happy all day on the back of my Speed with the grab rail installed. I just add 3 clicks of compression & the bikes spot on.
Thanks, will have a try, the grab rail is a good idea but don't think it works in conjunction with a rear rack, the 16 onwards seat is smaller.
Had the 1050 Sprint ST for a few years and agree with the comments about comfort for the rider and ability of the pillion to look over the rider but the only downside with that seat is that the two securing bolts (the seat fits lengthways) are right under each of your pillion's bum cheeks and they can generate some choice language after a while!!
Haha, I've had a look and too tall for me. Taking a bonnie out on Saturday (weather depending), never know she may hate it! But a low ride I think is more important for me. Had the perfect bike, cbr600 but she didn't say anything when I had it!
Fitting interference, I had a look at the fitting kit and there is a plate that sits in the tail, and 2 or 4 long bolts you have to drill through the bottom to hold the rack. This is the same fitting for the top box and panniers. Also looking at the diagrams I don't think this will work if you have a evotech tail tidy.
