Hi all,
I would like to put a pillion on the bike, but as I have never had a old bike with two separated seats, I would like to know your advices about that, seat or saddle ?
Thanks for your precious help.
Didier

Be careful. Ordinary civilian Lycett-type spring pillion seats won't fit between the forward legs of the W/NG luggage rack. The military ones are quite different.
There's a lot of information on the WD Motorcycle Forum about military pillion seats. Ariel apparently used 'Acumen' pillion seats:
