If I buy a Bigboy driver's seat, can I use the Honda OEM pillion with it?
The only reason I would use the passenger seat would be to act as a platform for my Bag Tec (Kuryakyn) bag when taking a trip.
I had a Mustang seat with driver's backrest and pillion on my previous bike. I would strap the bag to my backrest and use the pillion for a platform. (see photo)

The Corbin Stinger seat I now have tapers off on rear fender and do not think I could secure the bag using this seat.

I believe you can. The project bike I just picked up had the Ultimate King Boy with the backrest post, plus the OEM rear pillion. The King is a little larger than the Big Boy so I'm assuming your idea would work. That backrest post bolts to the rear fender at the same place the rear pillion does and sticks up between the two seats, and it all fit.

I bought a Big Boy and hated every mile I put on it. Which wasn't much because that seat tends to make you sit directly on things you don't want to sit on and go nubm on you. Des was at Inzane again last year and made me a swett deal on the King Big Boy. He even sold my Big Boy for me at Inzane. I VERY HIGHLY reccomend Des and Ultimate Seats! A GREAT company to work with. If in any doubt, go with the King Big Boy.

All the best,

I use a King Big Boy on my tourer with the oem passenger pillion and it fits fine. I will probably get an Ultimate passenger seat eventually but in the mean time this setup works fine.
