Lightbulb Seat Pictures Wanted!!!!

I have a '02 883R with the T-Storm conversion and I have a HUGE problem with staying in my seat (Lepara Bare Bones LT) whenever I get on it. I've sat on my buddy's '08 Nightster and what a difference, feel like your "locked in" the seat. A few seats I'm looking at are the HD Brawler and C&C Solo. With that being said, post a picture of ANY solo seat you have and make sure to give a brief description of what it is.

I have the reach solo seat and I have never felt as if I was going to come out of it while i was riding. To me the seat is comfortable and I enjoy the ride i get with this seat. It cost me $139. My sig pic shows the seat on the bike.

Here's an old picture of my bike with the Lepara seat on it. I love the way it looks, a little on the hard side but I can go about 80-100 miles before I have to stretch out. I'll try and post a newer pic of my bike today, we'll see though.

C & C solo - you might want to have them put in an extra layer of foam or an additional gelpack. I just did an 800 + mile trip and the tailbone definitely started to suffer after 300 miles.

Our solo seat has a low profile low & lean look, its slick low profile look hugs the frames contours like a glove, following the lines of your bike. The seat is designed to lower the driver 1" and bucket them in within its contours giving plenty of lower back support to provide the lowest comfortable ride possible.

Martinez, If you like your buddy's solo on the Nighster why not look for a used one. I got one for $60 looks like new.

I don't think that it would fit on my bike, I've got an 2002.
