Default Le pera stub's cafe seat on Roadster

Fitted today. Great comfort out of the box. 5 minute fit and fantastic quality. I like the gap with 3.3 tank.

Thanks for the comments !

Took me a while to decide what seat to go for. Looked at the HD Café seat and offerings from Mustang etc. But having had a Le Pera in the past on my old Street Bob I know it would be comfortable. And it will break in slightly in the next few hundred miles. Not the cheapest option, but to me comfort is everything on a bike. I was also impressed with the carpeting on the "Tongue". Everything designed to cause minimal damage to Fender etc. Only now do I realise how uncomfortable the original seat was. Too soft IMO.

I like the Café look

The seat does look "comfy".

FWIW to me your bike is screaming for rear set (racing) foot pegs.
Not sure the aftermarket options.
Would be nice is the rear set linkage did not flip the shift pastern from 1 down 4 up to 4 down 1 up.

Awesome bike....have fun.
