I occasionally take a pillion, trouble is, the Monster is not the most pillion friendly bike.

I am thinking of buying another saddle & having it modified to create a more comfortable pillion seat.

Can anyone tell me what saddle will fit a Monster S2R 06 reg (i.e from what year onwards)

Thanks

I think all the injected bikes have the same seat,or at least from 2001.
Cant comment much on pillions as I dont take one very often,though the DP seat I have is a different material and is less slippy than stock,nice for me but probably not much softer for the pillion even if it is more secure.

Yeh.
I have looked at the Corbin / DP options, but I don't take a pillion that often & don't really want to spend too much.

I was thinking of buying a used standard saddle from e-bay & having it modified by a car trimmer I know.

I never understand why anyone would want to be on the back of a bike to start with and it isn't something I'd be encouraging by getting a comfy seat!!

Try Ross Hunter. I bought a spare seat and had it modified by Ross who made a great job and now the wife is well happy.
