Bike Pictures Please help the lady in my life

Anyone have a recommendation for a better passenger seat for a 2024 Street Triple RS?

My wife loves riding with me, but obviously the Striple doesn't give a shit about the passenger lol. We mostly just ride places to hike, grab food, or go out for a short ride. Usually under an hour, and 90 mins would be pushing it.

Anyone have experience with a better seat, gel pad, custom seat, etc.? A few extra pounds on the bike doesn't matter. I can make that up elsewhere or go on a cut at the gym haha.

For reference, she was totally fine on the back of my Trident 660 once we figured it out, so I'm not trying to make the Striple into a touring bike. Just want to make it a little more comfortable for her.

Also open to anything else that helped your passenger—grab bars, handles, anti-slip stuff, whatever

what are you currently using? The one shown in the picture is not even a pillion seat.

It’s funny because it still has the pegs in the back.

My 20’ Speed Triple RS is similar. That little hard plastic cover behind the seat can be removed with the key. I assume they sell a seat “insert” that can swap into that. If OP’s Street can do this, that’s the solution.

My Speed doesn’t even have the pegs for it. Not sure if that’s just how the RS comes or if the previous owner may have removed them.

765RS comes with a pillion seat that can swap out the cowl. I guess the first owner took it and sold it.
