Well, it doesn't physically move you too far, but you can definitely feel the difference. I'm sure it wouldn't be too much for your contols.

Most are going to make the seat with leather on the seated area and vinyl on the sides since it flexes and retains it's shape better that leather would in that area.
They will make a all leather cover if that's what you want though.

I was going to go with blue leather, but Sherry said they didn't have a shade of blue to compliment the Pacific Blue Pearl Deluxe on my bike.
So I got a solo with blue stitching.

Firm with gel insert, but great for 4 hr plus rides.
Many seats that feel soft while trying them out parked, compress during the ride and don't offer as much comfort as the seats that are designed with closed/dense cell foam.

Thanks Kristie, I looked into it and though the Danny Gray seats sound well made and I did talk to Sherry, who was very helpful, the price difference is pretty significant, enough to make the C&C, which got great reviews here, sound like a better value.

Thats my kitchen. Just kidding. Ya go ahead and use the pic no problem. Put it on your web site. A couple years ago my son put his new sled (snow mobile) in my shop and put some pics up on his facebook. He got a comment saying with a sled that cool I would park it in the kitchen to.
