Jim's contact info is in the thread Sapper sent you or you could PM him through the site.

I love JC's Corbin I want the two up version with that stitching in Tangerine!!

Corbin does a number of different stitch patterns, also.  They have the falmes, tribal, gothic, etc.  By the way, seats without heaters are not usually stitched.  These are heated seats that are stitched.

Sounds like your costing me more money! The wife wants a heated seat already!

I just got off the phone with Wayne at Corbin Factory. I put in an order for their  unheated Classic Solo for my 2010 SESG and after reading the thread about stitching options decided to change my order to a heated seat so I could have some stitching.  He told me that they had to change the glue they use on the seats due to EPA and that their stitching patterns are limited by the new design they went to. He advised me to not get stitching on the seat as it is more comfortable without it. What gives here?

Just trying to make it easy on theirselves.  You could have got your seat cheaper through Jim (hd-dude on this forum).  Cancel your order, call Jim at Metal Dragon  (510) 885-9471.

Let me report in - 1st day, 300 miles brought it by the dealer. I could see the gap when I sit on it. After about 75 miles, the seat didn't spring back quite as well so I figured I could register my b@#$% on this flimsy seat. Service manager looked and agreed. Figures he could take advantage of the bolt holes in the frame to make a brace under the pan so that the seat doesn't drop into the void above the battery. I think this is a possible fix, but since I'm awaiting my Corbin, kinda defeats my attempt to sell the stock seat once I've replaced it.

Service manager hasn't seen this issue, but agrees that it's BS. Flimsy plastic seat pan with no support. The dealers don't see this as they get so few of these bikes in. He's making the call to the MoCo on Monday, we'll see what the response is and then I'll call if it's a goat rope.

Oh yeah, did I say this was the first day and within 300 miles? I'm 6'1" and just under 190 lbs.  :coolblue:

Be sure to let us all know if they do come up with a fix. Last week they (H.D. customer service) told me that the ONLY fix they were coming out with was for the ROAD GLIDE ONLY!!!!!!!!!!!

2010 Street Glide Seats

I have a 09 SERG with the stock seat,
Do the 2010 Street Glide seats have the same issue with them pulling away from the tank?

The answer to your question is yes. This thread already existed about that issue so I moved/merged your post/thread with it. You may want to read this thread to get more information. :2vrolijk_21:

Does anyone have a C &C seat on their SESG?  I am getting ready to purchase one (after I see the fabric samples), and I am wondering how they mold the seat pan, and if it will eliminate this gap issue?

Check out this thread - Pics of my new girl. The pictures in this thread sold me on C&C and I'll be getting one like it first of the year. :2vrolijk_21:

 I have some pics of mine with the C&C  fastback seat on page 5 of the C&C seat thread. They did a great job on it.
