My seat came down $200.00 .. I really like my Corbin, but the $699 for their heated dual tour is a much more realistic price than the $899 I gave last year at the same time . (and they had just went up $100 last year when I ordered). Thanks for ruining my day, Terry ::) . Heck, it's only money. Unfortunately, it won't be the last item I bought over priced.ain't that the truth! especially if has harley or HD on it !!! :huepfenlol2: john
Thanks! I will be checking this out for my 08 SEUC. A new seat has been on my list ever since I picked up the new bike cuz the stock seat is some kind of ugly.
Anyone have any recommendations on which seat, which cover,..... for a SEUC that is ridden two-up most of the time?
Quick question how much better is the Corbin seat than the stock seat for an 07 SEUC. Is it really worth the dollars? If it is I will have to add to my christmas list.
The Dual Tour would be the seat you want, w/heat. The question is, will it fit your bike because of the relocation of the ECM, etc. They do not list a seat yet for an 08 UC. I would guess that is because the seat pan will have to be redesigned and new molds created. But when they do one, if you ride two up most of the time, plan on leaving the TP on most of the time, the Dual Tour is the way to go, IMO.

Gee whiz TC. I had no idea a Corbin seat cost that much(http://www.clicksmilies.com/s1106/lachen/laughing-smiley-018.gif) ? Man, you guys got hosed with those kinds of prices(http://www.clicksmilies.com/s1106/lachen/laughing-smiley-018.gif) (http://www.clicksmilies.com/s1106/lachen/laughing-smiley-018.gif)(http://www.clicksmilies.com/s1106/lachen/laughing-smiley-018.gif)!
It's like the difference between sitting with a steel rod up your a$$ for 500 miles, and not...

Never tried it. What's it feel like? :nixweiss:
Aren't you exaggerating? Just a little bit? ;)
I've told you a million times, stop exaggerating. ;D
Hey Don...hug a sick monkey's butt.... ;) :huepfenlol2:
OK...let me re-phrase...it's like the difference between sitting on the edge of a steel 2x4 for 500 miles, or not... :P :P ;)

Some people do not have a problem with the stock seat hurting them, but most find they do not care for the stock seat after the bike has a few thousand miles on it, or they have ridden more than 400 miles in a day, whichever comes first.

TC,
Thanks for the recommendation.
The ECM will not be the problem, it will be the way the seat mounts. They switched the tang from the seat to the tank >> backwards from what it was.
Sure would be nice if there was somewhere (store front) that I could look at and touch the seat before I spend my $$$. Doesn't Corbin have several options on coverings??...different types of leather and/or vinyl. Any thoughts on what is best &/or most durable?
;D ;D ;D
When they move the tang, that is a bad tang... ;) Makes it harder to find the slot...
Come to HS or MV and you can touch
TC is such a perv sometimes.
As long as nothing gets on my saddle :mango: .
Don't let me forget something either. I owe you beers in Hot Springs for finding that to begin with!
See, you could have gotten by with that too, but now that you reminded me, I'll take one... :drink: I always look out for my pals... :2vrolijk_21:
Bob, how did the nose job on yours turn out?
Don-Works with my thighs a lot better now. They didn't reshape the nose but rolled the edges of the bucket just a little for me. Turn around time was about 6 weeks as it was their busy season this past spring. They said initially they would charge for the return shipping but didn't. They also put on a whole new leather skin for the seating position that I hadn't expected as well as a new heating element (the old heater was fine). I don't think they want to take any chances in some of these areas. Normally Corbin sends you a tracking # when it leaves their plant. I received the seat quite pleasantly unexpected. The funny thing is that I rec'd the tracking # about a month after I received the seat. Thought I might get a 2nd one but no such luck. Bob
Come to HS or MV and you can touch, sit all you'd like to on a couple of different bike/seat combinations.
I will be looking for a seat when I get to Daytona next month. So this is pleasant news for me.hey Q, are you just wanting a 'change' or is something wrong w/ the seat pictured on your bike? It looks great! :2vrolijk_21: spyder

Q's wanting that Snakeskin/Elephant foreskin seat he's had in his mind for the last year. :2vrolijk_21: Charcoal Gray would be awesome on the Purple SERK.... :bananarock: :2vrolijk_21:Ohhhhhhh.........and it will be awesome. Wonder if the custom Corbins are also marked down, or just the 'off the shelf' models? :nixweiss: I'm needing to replace my corbin spiderweb seat 'cause the sides (hides) have split/etc. Guess I'll be finding out soon. :nervous: har! :drink:spyder

Terry,
that sure sounds kind of dangerous! What does the seat do if it gets rubbed too much? :nixweiss: john
Well I posted a while back that I want an exotic hide in light and dark grey. Maybe ostrich or rhino possibly. Dunno we shall see. But Indian elephant is already grey might work. :huepfenlol2: :nixweiss:
I dropped Corbin a line , as I just got my heated Dual Tour less than 2 months ago at the old price.Can't hurt. Maybe they'll take the lead from Apple/Iphone and send you a gift coupon. :-\
Don't really expect much , but let them know it didn't really ingratiate them with me.
I hope you mean fake or faux Rhino! I'd be awful upset to hear anyone would use real Rhino hide. They are the greatest animals on earth and we can't afford to lose even one more. Any Rhino hide would be obtained by poaching. Those poachers should be shot themselves, on sight!!! >:( (And this is not in jest at all!)Yes Howie I was kidding about the rhino hide. I am looking for ostrich or something exotic but not illegal. But there is a chance that I can get my hands on some humpback whale which might go good with purple. What do you think? :huepfenjump3:
Hoist! 8)
Maybe Corbin hired a new crew of illegals? :nixweiss:
