Default Lepara Barebones

I e- mailed Lepara over 2 days ago with this simple question. Obviously their "Customer Service" dept leaves a lot to be desired!

I'll ask the question here, where I probably will get a more dependable answer anyway.

I have an 08 XL1200C that I would consider putting the Barebones on.

My question is, Can the "Seat Post" remain in place with the "Barebones". I use Throw-overs that use the seat post.

I did not think that that was a very "Technical Question", but it must have stumped their CSR (probably a Foreigner that works for "Peanuts")

I've called LePera, and found their customer service to be very knowledgeable and friendly. Give them a call instead of email and see if you don't get a better answer.
