Corbin uses mostly faux exotics. So its leather embossed to look like ostrich in the light gray areas.And thanks for the compliment Gary. Later,Q

You did a nice job with the seat.  Looks great.  Completely changes the look of the bike.   :2vrolijk_21:
Thanks! And hopefully it will make the riding easier on my butt.  :huepfenlol2: Later,Q

John, I've broken in 5 of the Corbin seats over the years.  It's not they are terrible to begin with.  They're not.  But they are FIRM.  In the first few hundred miles the seat does break in both generally and to the contours of your butt.  You also adjust to it, how it feels and that it spreads the pressure points to much wider zones.  So don't let any initial concerns worry you too much.  Give it three or four or five tanks full of gas and then really begin paying attention to how it's feeling.

A few have had issues with Corbin touring saddles being a little high on the sides, under our thighs.  Can get the tinglies when that happens.  If you do notice that or anything else one of the benefits of Corbin is they'll give you a free adjustment.  Call and speak with them about where and how it feels in whatever it way it shouldn't feel.  You'll be out the back and forth time.  But they do a real good job of taking what we describing and cutting on the seat pad to make it work how our rear end and legs need it to. 

Those needing this kind of work have been the rare exception.  But it's nice to know it's a relatively painless option of need be.  For now just put a few hundred miles on it and then really begin paying attention to how it feels.

John,

I have to admit that I initially had some reservations about an exotic seat like that, but now that I see it. WOW!!! That really looks awesome. Congrats on one really great looking scooter.  ;D

You know, I don't like the looks of the corbin Heated Dual Tour on the ex-Jester when I'm riding solo. I might have to go seat shopping now.  ;D

John...man, that is a great looking seat!!!  Particularly on the top view, the seat flows with the bike more than the old seat.  Picking up the Grays and Silvers, plus the flames, is awesome.  You should be proud, and are obviously a man with a good eye for design/form. 

Excellent job, my friend   :2vrolijk_21: :2vrolijk_21:

Being as tall as you are, I don't think you'll have any need for them to cut the seat, but like Don said, if you do, it's no biggie.

Equally important:  What does the bride think?

Q,

You did well my friend!  It truly is amazing how a seat defines a bike!  With the new seat on your bike, all kinds of details that were never outstanding all of sudden jump out at you.  Looking at the first pictures of the new seat, the Ostrich pattern seemed a bit light in color, but on the bike, it truly looks awesome.  Before, you had a nice black seat that didn't take away from the bike, but now you've got a seat that truly adds!  Look forward to hearing how well you like the ride and maybe even more importantly, how well the better half feels about it!
