My wife if uncomfortable on the stock for anything more than an hour. How is the Corbin for comfort and touring? I have seen that you can put the Ventura bags with the Corbin anything else I should know? |

from what i hear, the corbin has a lip that keeps the passenger from sliding forward, that's gotta count towards comfortability! |

We have the corbin gunfighter seat (NOT gunfighter and lady) on our M2. On the stock seat, I always felt like I was going off the back of the bike and the seat was uncomfortable. After adding the Corbin seat and Ventura Rack we've done day-long trips on the M2. We did have a little issue around how the Corbin seat fit the M2. After a little re-shaping, all is well. |

Does anyone have or know where I can get an inexpensive Corbin? Or is it best to buy new? If new, who has the best deals or go factory direct? |

The "Buell Color Matched Custom" seat is pretty decent, ( see my profile ) You may find one on E-bay. |

Keep an eye on the Corbin web site. Last winter they reduced their Buell seat prices to $229. I have the Gun Fighter and Lady on my M2 and S3T and like them both. I don't a passenger though. Mark |

I see Corbin fairly regular in the last year on ebay. Typical price is $85 to $125. I got mine (GF/lady with backrest) from ebay for $200. I was impatient. I like the seat better for anything longer than just around the neighborhood. But for quick trips, it does seem hard. So i'm changing mine back and forth a lot. Only takes one minute, so why not? Time it takes for the engine to get loose, I choose which seat. |
