How much are your personalized seats running u guys for?

I see $200+ for batch seats.

Btw more I see you folk using them the more I am sold. The seat will be my topping off when all said and done for my winter wishlist.

A C&C which in my opinion is more comfy and looks exactly the same will cost less. I do 500 mile days on my C&C all the time. Never had a LaPera but all of the ones I have sat on have been a bit harder. Either way, that seat looks great! Here is my C&C, I didn't opt for piping.






I have the matching bib too, but these are the best pics I have of the seat right now.

Nice Seat I went the other direction though. White with black stitching and piping. I ordered the matching pillon as well. Asley was great to work with at Le Pera.

Hey Motown, nice looking seat.........intresting I called Le Pera yesterday to ask about a new seat and the person on the phone told me they don't make a seat that has the softail "2 hole" fender mount. Am I seeing an illusion or do you have a 2 hole fender mounted seat? I have a Motherwell Solo fender rack that mounts to the 2 rear seat bolts so I was looking for a compatible seat........is that a custom pan?
