2013 Rocket III Touring
Just ad a nice 441 mile ride today down to Triumph Detroit. I had ordered a Long Haul seat and went down to pick it up.

This is the new model, not like the normal one piece seat on te Touring. It is now a two piece rider amd passenger seat. And the rider backrest is still separate order.

This pick was just taken in a low lit pole barn but it gives you an idea. I believe that the passenger seat is wider and more comfortable than the previous model.

Let me know how ya like it
 
Rode back on it. A bit different position wise with the backrest but it seems OK. Will know more after my trip to Tennessee beginning Sunday. Give it some break in time. I DO like the back support.
 
I used one of those last year on a ten day ride to the smokies and back. it is considerably better than stock. I then had Rick Mayer redo my stock seat, which is what I use now. If anyone is looking for the new triumph touring set up without the backrest Id be willing to Part with it
 
Looks pretty comfortable mate .. riders backrest makes a lot of difference on long rides. Thanks to CanberraR3 I am a convert.

I think the back rest is almost a necessity if you plan on using the torque on take offs.
Sports bikes have a pad behind the ass and your ankles are also behind you.
On a cruiser with the feet forward position ,there is not much stop you going backwards.
Its ok if you only have 80hp
 
The back rest makes a huge difference. The seat could be softer. Hopefully it will get better as it or me gets broken in
