See my comments earlier re ROHO seats pads, they have a pillion pad also. Also I find my air horns help more than anything with cage drivers who are somewhat blind to motorcycles. They were cheap, $20.00, fun to create brackets for and install and are loud. Don't know where you live, but Harbor Freight Salvage has the kits, also most auto parts stores will have them, probably not as cheap. I wired the relay in where the horn was, put the compressor on a bracket on the bars and put the horns blowing out each end of a fork mounted tool bag with screens in the end. As the compressore draws more amps than the roginal horn, be sure to use a separate circuit(fused) for the compressor.
If you don't want to go that route, look in the back of HD type magazines for a truck style air horn made of HD replacement. more$ and large to mount but supposedly loud.
Happy motoring and think about a MSF class to help minimize those scary times. Max
