Default LePera Bare Bones vs. The World!!!
Personally, I think it's comfortable after a little bit of break in. Who's with me?!

They look great.. I wouldn't have used anything different for my barhopper....

But for comfort and distance.... They suck.

LOL... That's why I went for a C&C, almost the same looks, twice the comfort.

I have a Sundowner I can use for longer rides, but I won't hesitate to do a 2 hour trip across the state to visit friends on one.

Don't know bout the seat, Love the stock seat on our Heritage...

But I do really like that paint on Ur Deuce. Don't remember ever seeing one that blue.

I had one on my train. Looked killer. But the ride was killer to after 30 minutes. Did a 170 mile ride one day and wanted to die. It's the best seat for looks and quick rides but long rides it hurts don't kid yourselfs.
