I'm still thinking about the CityX that I rode a few weeks ago. Unfortunately, stock won't work for me. What I really want is a City X with a real 2-up seat. I'm thinking a Ulysees seat would be ideal, but I'm unsure about how much that would cost, and what would have to be swapped out with that.

Are there any decent aftermarket passenger seats for this body?
How much $$$ would I be looking at to swap seats?

Thanks!

Get somebody back there before you decide. Despite how small it looks, my wife had no complaints about moderate rides (hour or two) on the back.

If you need real touring capability, it will be hard to touch the 12X. I sat on one today, the thing was more comfortable then my desk chair.

The Uly seat will not fit the standard XB line as the frame is different just enough. You could easily get the XB12Ss Lightning Long, and mod it out to match the SX alot easier.
