- November 08, 2014, 07:35:10 AMThanks guys for your thoughts and prayers. I really appreciate it.
Question. I found a seat on ebay, its from a 03 nomad and it appears as though the passenger seat just sits on the rear fender, is that correct? no need for horseshoe type attachment?

- November 07, 2014, 10:24:01 AMThere is a 2up seat for the Drifter, both 800 and 1500 (not interchangeable). Here's some info on the more common ones: http://www.vulcandrifterriders.com/drifterseats.html
To add a 2up seat to your bike you'll also need what's refered to as the "Horseshoe bracket". It's the part that goes directly under and supports the rear of the seat in this link: http://www.ronayers.com/Optional-Parts-C378988.aspx
These parts are getting harder to find, but not impossible. Ebay might be a good way to go, and you could always post a "Want To Buy" ad on this site: http://www.vulcandrifterriders.com/forum/index.php?board=29.0

- November 07, 2014, 06:58:54 AMOkay, I have not been on here for a while. my wife was diagnosed with lymphoma about a year ago, and we have gone to hell and back, but she is doing much better. she does not ride and yesterday, she really surprised me. She simply said she would like to get on my bike with me and go for a short trip down to one of our lakes nearby. about a 30 min ride. I was shocked and almost fell out of my chair.
Here's the problem. I only have a solo seat. I have an 02 1500. Is there a 2up seat for this bike, and if so , where do I purchase it.
I really want to get her out before she changes her mind. And after all she has been through in the last year, I owe it to her to live again. Lymphoma is a blood cancer, and it has turned our once steady, free flowing lives, upside down. I have to get some type of seat where she can ride with me. please help, thank you.
