Bob,
My Eldo came with what I think was a Travelcade King/Queen seat on the
regular pan. I sure didn't find it very comfortable since the foam had
to be reduced to fit the pan. And we get reduced maneuving room with
the Travelcade. My wife did like the rear section. Before our trip out
west a two years back, I got Rich Maund to make a whole new seat
including gel pads. On our trip, neither of us got sore butts at any
time after riding for around 8 hours a day. I can send you a picture of
the seat on the bike if you wish.

As to sissy bars, I have a Triple A set. It consists of a luggage rack
with a bar attached. You can remove the bar and retain the luggage
rack. Works out pretty well.

 Anyone out there have a King/Queen seat for sale or trade? The Missus
wants to ride this Spring but wants something a bit more comfortable
than the two-up plain flat seat I have now; it is the standard Loop
seat. I want a more comfortable seat. I know it doesn't look cool
but something like a King/Queen would do. Any suggestions of other
seats would be OK as well. Also, can the standard seats accept a
sissy-back? Thanks, Bob
