Le-pera seats
#3
Le-Pera seats look great but are not known for comfort. If you want comfort I like Mustang or Corbin with riders backrest cant beet it on the long haul.

hard, uncomfortable garbage... mine went right back (albeit reluctantly he didn't want that P.O.S. back either.)
the screws weren't even recessed on the bottom so they dug into the frame and you had to bend pan a bit to tighten it down with the screws gouging the frame. i wouldn't recommend them, you get what you pay for.

I have a Corbin Duel Touring, a Lepera Maverick the seat that came with my bike a Badlander seat and the Lepera seat is very comfortable and I can ride for hours and butt never gets sore. The Harley seat hurts after about 2 hours. The Corbin seat is so bad that after 20 mins. I have to get off the bike. All are made very well with top quallity leather.
Just because Lepera is good for me does not mean it will be good for you. Everyone backside is different and you have to find what fits yours.

I agree. I have a LePera skinny cobra on my Fatboy--IMHO nobody makes a better looking,or more uncomfortable seat. Something about the look of their leather screams quality, but I put on my stocker if I'm gonna go distance. Same with my RoadKing--got a Stripper on there;looks like it was made by LePera, but the stocker goes on for long rides. I've learned, when it comes to bikes & cars, you can't have both looks AND comfort (Cadillac VS Corvette)

Had a Sorrento on my Fatboy. It was a great looking seat. My wife didnt mind it when we road two up on occasion. Yes its a bit firmer than the Harley seat. If you are buying new talk to them they have different weights of foam, and also use gel pads in them. I like ours, but I know their are those who dont. To each his own I guess.

I'm not a big LePera fan. I'd get a Mustang or a Danny Gray. I currently have one of each. I've had several Mustangs on various bikes, and all were very comfortable over the long haul. My Dyna has a Mustang and my RK has my first Danny Gray, which is the best looking and most comfortable seat I've ever had.

I was looking at getting a mustang for my deuce because of all the great feedback on them from friends. I ended up with a sundowner from harley. The price was right (free). I just rode 950 miles in 3 days on a trip to the U.P. of Michigan. Never had any soreness and could of rode another 950. My stock badlander I would of lasted 2 hours before I had to take a break. The sundowner is a winner in my book and wasn't even a seat I would of considered before. My fiancee is also a big fan and the biggest critic on comfort. My advice is try to find a few different seats at the dealer, charity ride, or event and try em out.
