K&Q with FEK?

I feel like some of these acronyms may be a little much. Basically I am looking at being able travel some distance 2up on my 09 thruxton. I want to add the mini fender from bella course or go with the FEK but have not decided yet which one. And I am probably going to go with the king and queen from triumph. The thrux seat is pretty miserable 2 up, even solo for that matter on any real distance. But that is why I've got an alaska leather butt pad.

Basically I was wondering if anyone had any pics of how ridiculous this actually looks so I can decide if it will work for me... even though I came from a v-strom, there is only so much ugly I can take.

Yeah, probably would look fugly. I put a stock Bonneville seat on my Thruxton to see how it would look...not too bad. Took it for a spin too...not too bad.
A Bonneville seat would likely be better than the stock one for two up, but I heard the k/q is way more comfy. That has got to trump looks if you are taking a long trip, eh?
