Default LePera Sanora Sport

Anyone tried one of these seats?

http://www.phatperformanceparts.com/...p/ln-034sp.htm

I talked to LePera and the girl wasn't sure of the thickness of it. She did say the Bare Bones was 1", and the Silhouette was 1 1/4" thick and the Silhouette Deluxe was a bit thicker but had a tiny bit of back support.

The only difference in the pictures on their web site looks like the Silhouette Deluxe is rounded off in the back and the Sanora Sport is more squared off.

I have the silhouette solo...and it isn't the most comfortable seat in the world. And I would honestly change it out, but I love the look of it on the bike...so it is staying. The padding is thin and there is ZERO back support.

I've had LePera build me many seats over the years . This is a Top Notch Family business. The "Girl" probably owns the company. It was founded by the Father Bob in the 70's . He was a Member of the Motorcycle Hall of Fame . Since his passing his Son and Daughter run the family business . Great People ! Great Seats ! Everything is made here in the Good Ol' US of A !
They will bend over Backwards to make everyone happy . Buy direct its worth the couple of weeks wait . T

I bought a LePera back in 2000 and it was a great seat. Put a lot of miles on it, and it still looked new when I sold the bike.

Dot know about C&C fastback but my Daytona Sport is great. I have done over 400 miles in a day and could have keep going but got to where I was going.
