I have just purchased a 04 Marauder 1600 and was wondering what kind of improvements should be addressed, as far as comfort is concerned (i.e.) the handlebar is just a hair too far forward and the passenger seat is torture on my girlfriend. Other than those issues... it's great to be back riding again.
Any suggestions about this bike in general would be great.
Thanks

Wife's got the same bike. It's quite a stretch for the handlebars, and the feet are pretty far forward.
You may be able to find risers to pull it back an inch or 2. There are some REALLY cool bags for the mean streak. Color matched flames on the bag, slash cut style. Plus, easy on and off.
Windshield> Kawi makes a nice mini that keeps with the look. About 14in or so of height. It takes out the brunt of the wind from your chest.
2 UP??? You are definitely on your own there. If you add enough seat to be useful, the lines are just gonna be lost.
