Low-Profile Driver Passenger Seat w/Passenger Sissy Bar Backrest Pad

In this review the focus is on a practical upgrade for riders of 2009-2023 Touring Harleys who want a lower, more comfortable passenger experience. The Low-Profile Driver Passenger Seat with Passenger Sissy Bar Backrest Pad offers a noticeably lower seating position while maintaining a comfortable ride thanks to built-in soft sponge padding. Our review highlights that this aftermarket seat is aimed at riders who need a close-to-stock fit for common Touring models and want improved long-haul comfort without major bike modification.

Key Features

• Fitment: Designed to fit many 2009-2023 Touring models, it provides a near-stock replacement for riders who have not modified their fender or tank.
• Materials: Constructed from microfiber leather and leather, the cover balances durability with a clean finished look that matches common touring trim.
• Comfort padding: A built-in soft sponge improves comfort on long rides and helps reduce rider fatigue for extended trips.
• Package contents: Ships with a driver and passenger seat plus a passenger sissy bar backrest pad so buyers receive a complete seating setup in one purchase.
• Low-profile design: The lower ride height provides a more relaxed riding position and a sleek profile that many owners prefer for aesthetic and ergonomic reasons.

Who It's For

This seat is best for owners of 2009-2023 Harley Touring models such as Road King, Street Glide, Street Glide Special, Ultra Limited and various Road Glide variants who want a lower seating position and improved passenger comfort on long hauls. It suits riders who want an aftermarket option that installs to the original mounts and preserves much of the bike's stock appearance.

It is not for owners of Trike models, heavily modified fender or tank setups, or the excluded late and special models listed in the compatibility notes (such as some 2023-later and 2024-later CVO and ST variants). Buyers who need model-specific custom seats or integrated electronics should look elsewhere.
