If you feel considerable vibration through the seat, I recommend the
all new "Sit'n Go" seat, for two of course, when you have a passenger.
It's dual-purpose -- for bad vibes and tight winding curves.
Note for curves...it's best to have hinges on your seat to keep you from
flying off with the seat in tight curves.
Haven't tried it myself yet; I've read it's quite effective...

Looks set up for a male pillion! I'm guessing female would prefer it a tad forward.

I was positioning it for best grip power. Further biological discussion will have to go to PM. (if not, as Moderator, I'd have to delete my own reply.)

The sooner you get behind, the more time you'll have to catch up.

I got in a set of Grip Puppies a couple of weeks ago for the buzzy K RS hand grips. They work great for me. Think I'll buy a set for the /7 too.
