Default Best Solo Seat?
Alright, sorry, I did a search on solo seats and didn't have the patience to look through 500. Anyway, pics the follow, but I just finished my winter mods and I had a passenger pillion prior. Now, after the the powdercoating...etc....etc., I hate it. I've decided to leave the pillion for my wife as I love the stock seat and she loves the pillion. What SOLO seat do you guys recommend? Lepera Bare Bones? (i dig it). Corbin solo ($$looks good$$) or any other? COMFORT IS A MUST as I just lowered the front and rear.

I ride on the Mustang wide solo, I love it. 500+ in a day and no problems. >link<
And the passenger pillion for it, it slips right on and all I have to do is secure it with one screw. >link<

I have an 06 Street Bob seat on mine and really like it. I just swap out to a different seat on the rare occasion momma wants to go.

I currently have the LePera Barebones and have had a Corbin on my old Sporty. Comfort wise, I'd have to go with the Corbin. Looks are about equal in my eyes. I do have the HD Brawler and it is comfortable too, however, being 5'9, it pushes me too far forward and I find myself sitting on the rear lip of the seat as I push myself back.

I guess it all boils down to personal opinions and your size.

The Bare Bones is cool and everyone here uses it, but I'm gonna buy the LePera Silhouette...it looks almost exactly the same, and has a bit more cush for the tush. Check out JRK's ride for a pic of it...you can't even see the difference in it and the BB.

Doesn't that mounting spike make it difficult to use other seats, though?
