Default Thinking of Going C&C

Hey guys, i was about 15 min away from pulling the trigger on a C&C Fastback. love the look and heard nothing but great initial reviews about them.
I became slightly worried though when i read this thread in the C&C sponsor forum

https://www.hdforums.com/forum/c-and...end-money.html

and this is from a mod. I PMed him about 5 min ago and i'm not expecting instant feedback, and i also understand that it's on a Bagger, so maybe that made a diff. I'd also like to hear from yall on here what your reviews are of your C&C after you've had it for a couple thousand miles or years, or how ever long you've had it on there.
Thanks yall!

I have had my CC fastback on my streetbob for about 6000 miles. I still love it!! Most comfortable seat I have ever had.

I have the C&C "off the shelf" solo with mercedes leather and I bought it back in 2010. 3 years and 10k miles later the seat still looks like new and feels the same as when I bought it. I can go 400-500 miles in a day with no back pain.

Just took this pic last weekend.

Have 2 bikes and C&C on both. I can't say enough good things about them including customer service when ordering. I have the gel in both and they are super comfy on the buttock.

Thanks again yall for postin up. I know that all butts are diff, and i figured the thread i found was just a one time deal, but ya never know, so i wanted to hear from yall. Kinda wondering bout the Gel. is it worth it over not having it? I've read articles where the Gel just kinda squishes and doesn't provide any support, but on the other hand, if its supposed to squish so your butt molds better, that makes sense right? I feel like I'm rambling...
I'll shut up now lol
Thanks!

I do not have the gel in mine. I do have the detach backrest though. I use it if I am going on long trips 8 to 12 hrs. Helps a lot.

I have a c&c solo with riders backrest andatching pillion. About 5000 miles on it and absolutely love it. Called them direct to custom order since I wanted distressed brown and it arrived 2 days from payment and its a one off. Cant recommend them high enough.
