Thanks.

The seat is just the LePera Silhouette Deluxe Solo, in leather with gel. And yes, you can ride it all day. First day I had it I put 400 mile on, with no issues. I also bought the matching pillion, so when I want to carry a passenger I can add it on with two screws. I think though, the regular Silhouette would probably be enough for most riding, I like the comfort but the regular Silhouette would be a touch thinner.

I used a couple of the extra threaded studs and spacers from a passing light relocation kit, to thread the stock signals into the holes in the side of the lower triple tree. I just played with the twist a few times until I found the right spot to get the light to be tight and aligned to the front. Could have thrown a lock nut on, but I just loaded the threads with loctite. Works for me.
