Default LePera Silhouette solo users??

Anyone riding one? Impressions, fit? I'm looking for something narrow and low. The Bare Bones is too flat and it looks as if the silhouette has a nice kick in the rear to keep you planted. Any full side profile pics would be ideal and even a pic from the top to get an idea of the width..Regular FXD's or DX's preferred, no WG's

Took a while for my *** to get accustomed to it, but (no pun intended) now I love it. I've also got a Mustang solo, however I prefer the LePera. I'm 58 if that makes a difference. Geezer

I have one on my SB. I did however send it off for Gel and Memory Foam upgrade at a shop in Cedar Rapids.



Plenty comfortable and feels like you are sitting in the bike rather than riding on top of it to me.

I have one, and have gone on 200+ mile rides with it. It's not bad... A little butt numbness, but shifting keeps that at bay. First two weeks was a little rough while it formed to my butt...

SBrob, What bars are those?

thanks guys. I dig the profile of it. and that lip looks as if it'll keep me where I need to be. I'm not too worried about comfort. My other bike is a rigid springer.
