There are two chrome and rubber strips that are on the rear fender.  They are so when you put the passenger pillion on, it won't be sitting on the fender.  Also, they look a lot better in the solo mode then having the clear plastic protector on the frame.

Why couldn't they come out with this seat in 2011??  I like the rougher reptile look better than mine

Because it gives you something new to buy this year....

I received my new Corbin Classic Solo Saddle (Part #HD-FLH-9-S) and Passenger Pillion (Part #HD-FLH-9-TP) just last week.  I installed both on my 2012 SESG WITHOUT removing the rear fender trim strips.  Also, both the saddle and the pillion came with the keyed locking hardware.

I hope this info helps...

Yes that info was of great help.  How do you like the Corbin Solo?  This would be my 1st purchase, I have always bought Mustangs.

Like I said, I just got it last week but so far I love it...

X2.  I too just got the same seats from Corbin.  Both front and rear worked fine. I will say that I had to put an additional washer under the bracket that holds the tongue in the rear of the solo seat, but thats it.

Pics?  I've been waiting on leather samples from Corbin for 2 weeks now. I want to make the seat look as much like the stock 2012 SESG seat as possible.

I heard that was an issue and you needed to shim up the rear bracket in order to clear the fender trim strips on the 2012's....

I have the sundowner and did not need to remove the strips.

just saying

also tried a sundowner Demo at teh stealership and it fit just fine over the strips. The newer version of the hammock seat will not fit over them but the older version should.  Newer would neeed to dremel off some plastic under the seat.  I too wanted to keep the strips, they look nice when in solo mode.

I sent Corbin pics of my stock seat and they did a fantastic job reproducing.  I have 6K mile on it already and am very happy, just wish the backrest was better light harleys.  Glad to hear sundowner will work, was going to sell it

Rear seat.

Pod - those pics are nice! The Corbin is even better looking than the useless stocker!

[Pod]

NGH, yeah they did, really happy w/ the seats.  Had to add a few washers though both front/back.  Now I want to change handle bars, not sure what type though.

Has anyone removed the rear fender strips and if so how did you remove them?
