Re: Passenger complains about vibration

I dont notice any vibration in my seat at all, nor in the bike. I have read the other forum posts on vibration and I dont have any of the other problems discussed (my wheels dont vibrate, my rotors dont vibrate when I brake, etc).
I picked up the sundowner passenger pillion because it was the "cushiest" looking seat for a passenger.
Has anyone had similar problems (either with the bike or the wife)? Any suggestions, should I try a different seat? The bike is stock except for the pillion, forward controls, blinker relocation.
Would different exhaust help? Oh, I have also tried being very sensitive to what gear I am in, I have tried the revs low, the revs high, but no luck.

Is it possible to put someone else back there and check this out? Is it just her "behind" that gets uncomffy or does it come up from the foot pegs???
