Has anyone here used the Bare Fender Butty Buddy and If so how did it work? I almost always ride solo but it would be nice to have something like this for those rare occasions. Butty Buddy

It just don't look to be too comfortable. In addition, I know when my wife sees a bumb coming she raises her tush off the seat a little and that seat would fall off. I don't think you or your passenger would like it much. Just bite the bullet and get a good passenger seat. Heck you can take them right off if you got the right model.

I have a riding buddy that just bought one for his gal, she loves it. They rode over 200 miles last Sunday. Before the new seat, she could barely ride into town with him (11 miles). And, once ont the bike you hardly see it. This is just one good vote for the seat.
