Thinking changing seat: Le Pera Outcast?
Hi!
I have an idea of changing seat for a different look (lower and back) and driving position on a 2009 FLHTCU. I need a lower position and a little bit moved backwards because of long feet. I was considering the Le Pera Outcast seat, with backrest.
Has anyone used or is using currently this seat on a EG? I would need some advice. Thanks!

May need to get a lower 'shield,to go with it. Both LePera and C&C make seats for taller riders,both are lower than stock by about 1 1/2 in. minimum. Just had a new shield put on the Road King (Clearview recurve)and had it cut lower in anticipation of the C&C seat that will go on it. Call the maker,they can tell you how much difference in height,leg room,to expect.

I asked Lepera.com about diferences and they sent me pictures of the regular Outcast and the Daddy Day long model. Here you can see the diference (+2")
Also they mentioned that there is not diference for leg room between stock seat and Outcast. So I might go on Daddy Day long...
Maybe someone interested. Ride safe!

Ditto! Went with the Lepera Maverick "daddy long legs" as well. 5'11", wanted to sit lower or "in the bike" and further back. Great seat, well made, and a nice cushy seat area for the OL!!
