Default LePera Outcast

I've been doing a few mods lately, and decided to get a new day seat to replace my Harley Hammock. I love the Hammock for comfort and still plan on using it for touring, but it's about as attractive as a fat lady in stretch pants.

Anyway I decided to got with the LePera Outcast. I wanted some custom stitching so when I ordered it last September I was told they were 90 days out on custom work. So much for my impulse buy. Anyway they beat their deadline by a couple of weeks, so I was happy with that. I put it on this weekend and went for a short (82 mile) ride to test it out. A little firm, but coming from a well-worn Hammock I think just about seat would feel that way. I was looking for a stylish seat with a fair amount of comfort, I think this will work for me. My only complaint is I am feeling some pressure above my tailbone (not painful by any means, just a little discomfort), but that seemed to ease somewhat as I rode. Hopefully it will continue to break in.

I've had an Outcast (daddy longlegs version w/backrest) for seven years now.

Real happy with it, and it still looks almost new. LePera makes quality seats.

Looks good, I'm almost a year in with my custom leather Outcast. It is firm, but it works for me.

Looks good. You could use a little padding like a sheepskin or one of these until it's broken in.

Nice! I love their seats and I went with Montgomery model in full leather. Little bit on a firmer side but that's ok. My cheeks are used to it by now. They make very nice seats. I even got compliments at the dealer during service.

I have a LePera Daytona 2Up w Gel on my SG and I absolutely love it. This is my 2nd LePera. They have both been firm seats but I’ve found that a firmer seat gives me more long ride comfort.

Went with the same seat. Love it for bar hopping or one day trips. Did a trip out west though and it really started to get uncomfortable later in the day. YMMV
