Cool Le Pera Seats

Just wondering if anyone is or has used a Daddy Long Legs seat from Le Pera.
I'm 6'3,245 and am looking for a new seat. My mustang is killing my butt ( I guess its called but burn). am also thinking of sending it to Mean City. Any suggestions. Thanks

I have one, I am 6'5 255lbs and it sets me back farther than anything else I tried(aside for my Brawler seat). Their customer service is second to none. Christine LePerra jumped thru hoops for me inorder to get me my seat in time for sturgis. She even called me the day she shipped it and called me when it arrived. As far as comfort....it is a firm seat. I found my rear going to numb after 100 miles or so. Not sure if the steel base pan has something to do with it?? The quality of the seat is excellent, I actually prefer the vinyl over the leather (less worries). Not sure if Id buy another just because of the numb butt affect but my passenger sure loved the seat, if thats a concern of yours? If you lived close by Id let you try it for a weekend.
