Excellent condition and light use since Corbin Factory Recover 9-29-04. $350 plus shipping.   Bsanorton Posted on Wednesday, September 16, 2020 - 07:28 pm:        Can the blue flames be taken off? Does the seat lower you?   883srfast Posted on Wednesday, September 16, 2020 - 07:33 pm:        May be able to "unstich" the blue flames? Does not lower the seat height . Slightly taller from stock.   Williamscottrobertson Posted on Wednesday, September 16, 2020 - 08:39 pm:        I have successfully used vinyl paint to change the color of piping on corbin seats before. All corbin seats are wider and therefore use more “leg”. They may lower the seat height just a bit but they will not make the bike feel any shorter when holding it up.   Hawgford Posted on Wednesday, September 16, 2020 - 09:23 pm:        I concur with WSR, but its actually vinyl DYE,that you would use on a vinyl roof,yes cages used to have those,lol. Another simple fix would be to just make a template of another color and glue it in with flexible fabric cement. The piping probably would never cover 100% and have to do alot of touch up ,so the only option would be black over all.. A buddy of mine is a pro interior/related shop,even does matchin wallets back packs tank bags and i'm ballparkin a recover on this would be around $250, with just about any single fabric or color you could dream up. For you CF fans ,he does alot of that. we're in Atlanta area   Bsanorton Posted on Friday, September 18, 2020 - 09:09 am:        Ok, thanks for the feedback, I'll pass. I had a Corbin for my M2, sold it, it places you further back in the saddle. The pegasus seat for my M2 & X1 fit me best. I have Sargent seats near me, I think I'll have them rework my stock one and there's also company that did a great job on my FLHTK seat might reach out to them. They lowered the seat and used better internal materials. Need to lower the seat height on my S2, I feel I'm riding on top of it, not in it.   883srfast Posted on Friday, September 18, 2020 - 10:12 am:        Bsanorton, thanks for looking and the communication. I have found it's worth the effort to get a seat that is "Just right". The subtle differences in shape, foam, seating surface materials and how it all works together can make big changes in how it feels and works for you. Good luck with your seat project and many safe miles. Michael
