How comfortable is the S83 Boulevard for a second passenger?
Thanks!

My best riding bud has an S83, and he takes his girlfriend on it all the time. She has never complained so it would seem that it's fairly good for a passenger, but of course not as good as something bigger like the M models or the C models with bigger seats.

The passenger seat on the S83 is better than some not as good as others. 2 up riding isn't one of the S83's stronger points as far as comfort. Prefer the C90 for 2 up comfort. This of course just my opinion.

I've been considering the Suzuki Gel Seat. I like the Suzuki Gel Seat on my brothers C90 although I thought his factory seat was pretty good. Did you find the Suzuki Gel Seat an improvement for both rider and passenger?

My daughter would ride on my bike all day. My wife on the other hand, hopefully would find the Gel Seat an improvement.

I don't have a problem with the stock seat for me. Just a few passenger complaints on the back seat. The back rest did help, though. No more than I have a passenger will probably just save my money and leave the stock seat on. I like riding solo more anyway.
