Default Two Road Zeppelin Seats - What's diff?

What's the difference between these two seats? Sure $100 is one thing. The $799 seat seems to have some built in back support with a deeper seat for the rider. A little bit of styling difference with the buttons on the $699 seat.

Has anyone sat on/owned both to know thedifference? Is there any reason this backrest that I already own won't work with the seat? 52622-03A?

One is leather and the other is vinyl,the vinyl seat has buttons the leather one has seams, either way an awesome seat...unless you want the back rest to match the seat use the one ya got.

Leather breaths better - looks better - softer will normally last longer.

I know nothing about it, but I saw a leather Zeppelin off an Ultra Classicon ksl.com (Salt Lake City) in thier classifieds under motorcycle accessories/part for $400. Wish it could go on my Road King - LOL. Seems like a good price. - Just FYI.
