Passenger Hand Grips

[njtrike]

Any passenger I have complains about how the passenger hand grips dig into their thighs. Short of removing them do you know of a solution. I do have a Road Zeppelin seat. Thanks

Remove and Replace

I removed mine and installed the HD Brand Arm Rests. That was my solution.

I don't have a backseater so I don't have that problem. Of course, if any smoking hot young lady would like to ride with a fat old grey haired guy, I would certainly be glad to address her seat issues. lol

We went from a '11 TG to a '20 and my wife noticed the passenger grips right away. I had the Dealer swap out my '11 grips onto the '20. Worked great and wife is happy!

My wife had the same complaint. Fitted DK Customs adjuster plates for the rear footboards, moved the boards up and forward to great effect!

I removed mine but asked my wife if she missed it specially while riding the back of the dragon and she didn’t. I told her I could cut the rods and put extensions on them to widen the grip, she said naw…

How much wider were the '11 grips compared to the '20?

I have a heated hammock seat off a 2011 CVO but it does not want to go down far enough in the rear to bolt up. I think the grap handles are to narrow and not allowing the seat to go all the way down. I have a old rider only hammock with the std seat passenger portion that fits on there fine. I may have to swap this out?

My new ultimate seat wouldn’t go on with the grab bars

So what did you do? Remove the grab bars?
