|  Making the change I currently own a sport bike, I've been trying to get my wife to ride with me but she won't get on. She told me if I get a bike with a big back seat she will ride and also let my 6 year ride with me. I'm lookin hard at the Boulevard M95 or the C90T does anyone know if I can outfit either bike with a big backseat, thanks

| If she's concerned about the passenger seat, depending on the model you can find some seat upgrades with a back rest. Check Corbin out, here's a backrest for a Hayabusa:

| I know it may be a long shot, but will your wife reconsider if you had one of these for your 919? http://www.corbin.com/honda/919.shtml I haven't seen any with arm rests, but you can find these for the C90 and M95: http://www.cruisercustomizing.com/de..._Boulevard_M95

| Hey, another rider from St. Cloud. You know, there are many bikes between a sporty and a cruiser. If you like your sportbike, you probably won't like a cruiser. I've heard of many going to a sportbike or sporty standard, but rarely from.

The C50 also works good with a passenger....Get a Mustang seat though. As far as the 6 year old, I would be hesitant on riding any passengers that can't put their feet on the pegs. Just a Fatherly opinion.

| They do make arm rest but I think they look gay. And the M95 they are or have stop making them so after market parts will dry up. The M109 is nice, I've seen them with a back rest. Then you can remove the back seat and look spotry. Plus about 115 HP just what you are use too. I agree with Dave leave young one at home. Or buy bike with side car. My wife didn't like bikes but after I got all the stuff you want I can't get he off the back seat.

I wonder if we can still influence his purchase?
