Hello together,
i am new here.
I am thomas from germany. This week i buy a 06 BD K9.
And I learn english for this forum and for the service manual, i hope you can understand me good.
The BD has only a solo seat, but i want to ride with my wife. Actually we drive a sportster with a good seat for her.
Since my first bike I dream on the captain america chopper and I love this seat.
So I want to put a seat like this on my Big dog. How can I do this? Is this avallible?
And I look for a Picture, how it look like on the bike. I want a seat with seat and ridge in one.
My second question spexial for germany.
What I have to do to write this seat in my bike-papers?

best regards
Thomas

Welcome.
There is a 2-up seatr made for the k-9 that is very good for passengers. Contact Bigdogpartskingpin.com (they are out of stock at the moment and awaiting a shipment)
The King and Queen seat style you refer to from the Captain America ride has never been made as far as I know for a K-9.

The above style seat is usually foind on a rigid not a softail. I too would love a seat like this but it would be a custom order.
Last company that I knew off making King/queen seats was Corbin-Gentry https://www2.vtwinmfg.com/update-captain-america-style-high-back-seat.html --note this Captain America seat WILL NOT FIT YOUR K-9

I also don't know how well a King/Queen style seat would look as wide as it needs to be for a K-9

Personally while I'm sure the seats Scoot makes are nice, I would lean towards Corbin-Gebtry first as they have done a lot of that style and that style seat has a self supporting backrest -- it does not rely on the sissybar as a rule -- that's a big engineering change if you haven't done it before.

The alternative of course if to do it as a tradional seat/sissybar pad and mimic the look.

While AI always wanted this look, I am now at the point where I'm not sure I would want to shift the center of gravity up that much hogher for my passenger.

But at my age I'm just hoping the 2-up airhawks (air in both locations) come back into stock at HDM before I am to decrepit to take advantage of them. (And that day is rapidly approaching.)

I have a Big Dog 2 up seat for my 06 K9 when the wife rides, she says very comfortable, of course it doesn’t look anything like the America seat. Welcome from Louisiana

Danke für deine Antworten.
oh. Ich weiß nicht, dass der Einbau einer Sissybar ein Problem ist, weil viele große Hunde das haben.
So wird es einfacher einen Sitz einzubauen, der keine Sissybar braucht.
ok, mein Fahrrad hat hinten einen 300er, also wird der Königssitz sehr groß sein.
Jetzt schaue ich auf Corbin-Gentry.
