Default anyone with a xl1200c with solo seat

I'm thinking about going with a solo seat now that my wife has her own bike. Any suggestions? Pics would be nice too, I want to get an idea of what it's going to look like.

Depends what you are looking for. I'm getting used to the Mustang Vintage Solo seat and is comfortable as hell and doesn't take away the looks from the bike.

One thing, remove the 2-up seat you have on now and check your fender for any damage. I had to pony up for a Fender bib to hide the scuffing from the passenger pillion.

If you are more concerned with looks I would go with the Le Pera Bare Bones. Probably sacrificing some comfort compared to the one mentioned above. My friend has the Mustang Tripper Solo on his sporty and it looks pretty good. He claims it is really comfy.

Here's a pic of the Tripper on a nightster.

I have the C&C lo pro solo and commute 70 miles round trip to work. Comfortable and like the lo profile look.

Here is a Corbin Hollywood Solo on my older Sportster (1990).

Thanks,
