Anyone put many miles on one? Looks great. How about comfort? Thanks.

I have owned several LePera seats; have a slim cobra for my Fatboy now. IMHO they are the best looking, but most uncomfortable seats made.

LePera seats = nice looking, zero comfort. Poser seat for anyone that picks form over function.

You don't "got it". That isn't even close to what I said. I said nothing about sofas. LePera seats suck big time. They look great but are about the most uncomfortable seat you can possibly get. I've got a Danny Gray and it's hardly a sofa but it's about a hundred times more comfortable than anything LePera has. Any Mustang is way better. Same for Corbin. The list of better seats goes on. Are those what you consider sofas?

Now I've got it! You're saying all non-LePera seats are rolling sofas!..... I'm just trying to dumb myself down to the level your communicating on.

Imagine taking a 2x4 and wrapping it with vinyl or leather. That should give some idea.
