I know they're ugly, but I would rather ride without being in pain...



Same here! The thing about the Mustang i dont like is the juicy feeling but thats what makes it comfortable i guess. I like the firm feeling of the bones in corners but more than an hour and i'm done.

I went with the barebones because I could put the stock pillion or stock seat on without any issues or having to take off the C&C bracket

I will use stock seat when 2up, so not really bothered about being able to use a pillion with new seat & not to bothered about pulling the bracket either!
I was all ready to order bare bones, especially when I noticed their Bel air seat, just still a little concern over comfort, then saw a bike on here (likestoride's bike, PIC BELOW! this pic made me want the Nacelle too!) with the C&C in the same style as the Bel Air & thought maybe that sorts it all out for me! Got a price for the Bare Bones now, shippings high to UK but will also get done for VAT & import duty as it comes in, so just going to get a price for the C&C, which ever's the best, I'll probably go for!

+1

The first day I got on the BareBones I rode about 5 hours. BIG MISTAKE! I thought I would never feel my a$$ again!!! Since then, i have never had the same feel. Sure, there are more comfortable seats out there, but the BareBOnes just looks kewl!
