Default Corbin Solo v LePera bare bones

I have the mustang day tripper with pillion seat on my slim s but not liking the ride or the look so was wondering if anyone has either of the Corbin or LePera on their slim could post up a decent pic of what they look like, also would be interested in pros & cons on both seats, cheers.

Bŕrebone looks simply awesome on a Softail.

Unfortunately, it's not a long distance saddle, for me after 1 hour I get the burns!

This was many years ago.

I have the Barebone on my Road King Classic and it fits me like a glove. But, like YellowBird said, not a great saddle for trips.

I had the bare bones (gel) seat on my Softail. Looked great and I had no real problems with comfort. Swapped it out for the Danny Gray Buttcrack in full leather and don't regret it one bit.

Thanks for the replies, much appreciated, I've ordered the bare bones with pillion for my slim, I'm not too concerned about long distance riding as i have other bikes for that, hopefully i will prefer it to the mustang.
