Sorry Pete, I thought it was sleeko's post, yeah you need a C&C solo. If you just want something in the short term, or that can be coupled with a pillion, then a late heritage seat is cheap enough

No worries! Thanks... I've been trying to decide exactly what style to go with next. The C&C's look sharp, but are they comfortable for long rides?
