RE: CC Seats
OK have had the SOLO on for 2 days. the ride home from work was alittle tough and not as comfortable as stock when riding, but much easier when stopping due to the narrow front and the 1" lower seating.
Day 2 with 80 degree temps it seams to be breaking in... still not as comfortable as stock but if it should get there soon
just suggest you not put it on and ride 500 miles right away. Other thing is because its more narrow at the front my legs are closer to the bike and I actually sometimes feel the heat of the oil cap (have an magnum buillet style cap that sticks up more then stock) and it gets warm!

I got one for my SG, to me they feel like a Corbin seat..kind of hard but their quality and customer service is top notch. I plan on modifying mine to fit me better but I always do that anyways.

RE: CC Seats
Very nice clueles. I like.
Tell me this.... Now that I see the pillion on your bike I like the way it looks. That is the pillion that they show on thier webiste right that goes with the solo? For some reason I did not like the looks of it on thier website. I do on yours though. Also... how does that connect? is it bolted down or just suction cupped? Also... how much just for the pillion?

RE: CC Seats
price was a bundled deal with Chuck for both... but it also depends on what options you want like leather or vynal sides...
it has 6 small suction cups and one rear bolt to hold it on... when someone is sitting on it it wont move, just have to be careful if you put on when the fender is wet. the one on their website is their generic pillion. this is the one I think they use now...

RE: CC Seats
Got the seat today. Went for a short ride tonight, seems a little bit hard, but not too bad. The quality and workmanship is good. Gonna put about 300 miles on tomorrow, we'll see how it feels as it breaks in.
