Default NSD - New Seat Day - and what a difference it makes

For the last two months, I've been running a Le Pera Bare Bones Solo seat. It looked fantastic, but after about 30 or so miles, it really started to get uncomfortable. I've heard this same criticism about this seat from other people.

Well, after the fiasco with the used Mustang seat that didn't fit properly (left a big rear gap), I decided to try this again. I ordered the Le Pera Sanora Regal Plus.

This one:



I just rode it for about 12 miles or so, and yeah, this thing feels awesome! It's going to be a lot more comfortable for the longer rides. I have to say that it's a lot more contoured, that is, angled in the rear, than most of the pictures I've seen would indicate.

So here it is on my Fatboy. Yes, it needs a bath and no, I don't care at the moment.

Absolutely. It distributes the weight well and definitely has more padding than the Bare Bones.
