If i had to use it,i would drop it down,and back,but i agree with MM on the other style.IMO it just does'nt fit.

Hmmm just been out to have another look........The passenger rear part does look high ,but I think the front part(driver)is ok, it follows the sweep of the tubes from main rail toward axle,and then flicks up into a sort of backrest.Maybe I'll sorta chop off the rear part and leave the front with its upswept backrest , using the covering of the chopped off bit to re-upholster the back face of the backrest. Been offered it at a fair price so maybe worth doing.

After looking at this in the cold light of day ,over my first cup of tea this morning,in the garage!I realise I was wrong to get carried away with the Harley seat. It does really need a single lower seat ,with a seperate rear one!

QD as in Quickly Detachable. Muffin made up a pillion seat for his black Reliant trike, which clips to the luggage rack bit of the frame with 4 R clips.
I wouldn't want to dictate what anybody builds -I love the variety here & the way different people see completely different answers to problems, but I've made the mistake myself several times of being determined to incorporate a feature into a build & finding almost everything else around it would need to be altered to accomodate it. Lots & lots of alternatives you can use, but maybe some things just "work" & others don't?

Nearly stripped ready for final weld of frame.......  (the strap across the down tubes is temporary,just to hold them together while a cross tube is added.) |
