Signature II chopper seat North Hollywood, California specialist Le Pera has spent 44 years keeping its seat designs at the cutting edge of motorcycle designs and tastes as the market evolved. But when Bob Le Pera Sr started handcrafting his first seats in 1972, it was choppers all the way. Fast forward to the 21st century, and while the materials have stayed ahead of the game in terms of quality, durability and comfort, Le Pera's chopper seats have remained a cornerstone of their design reputation and never left production. The seat seen here is their still popular Signature II, a true piece of Le Pera and custom motorcycle history. Available in Diamond, pleats, or pleats with buttons.
