I'm curious how that seat was on this trip also since I hear that those Corbins require some breaking in..... :nixweiss:

JC...

After the long vacation ride, what do you think of the new seat and besides the stitching, were there any other mods to the unseen portion such as more padding?

This stock seat will look best on a shelf in the basement!

Dave  :coolblue:

The seat is great......same comfort level as the Corbin seat on my SEEG.

Yes, I had a little of the padding shaved from the center, up towards the tongue.  Just a little more room for the boys :2vrolijk_21:


Uhhhhh.....we're in California.....we don't have basements. :nixweiss:  It'll have to stay on the shelf in the garage. :)

I don't really notice anything different on the first day of riding a new Corbin from 10k miles later.  Maybe that's cause I have an iron butt. :huepfenlol2:

All I know is that I was real resistant to buy a Corbin for a lot of years, just because it felt so hard to the the touch that I couldn't imagine that it could ever be comfortable.  Vanamal loaned me his and I took it on my ocean to ocean ride a few years ago.  When I got home I put every seat that I had in my garage (I had a collection of em) on ebay and bought that seat from Vanamal.  This is my second one and I don't need to look any further. :2vrolijk_21:

Stopped by Jim's shop today.  Boxes all over the place with "J.C." wrote all over them.........and the UPS guy delivered more while I was there.  Getting excited about getting all the other mods done and very anxious for the orther painted parts to roll in.

Don't worry guys..........I know the rules, I'll have photos posted just as soon as the mods get done.! :2vrolijk_21:

This one shows the saddle bag latch trim detail.  Jim hand painted the black accent groves a light blue to match the pin stripped flames.  He did a lot better job than I ever could have done. :2vrolijk_21:
  JCZ....is there chrome under the reflector or do you need to buy the chrome  part ....Keith

The saddle bag handle inserts (they insert where you remove the reflectors from) are from Drag.  Jim (hd-dude on this forum) has them in stock for $23.33.  Contact him.

If you're riding solo, I'm not sure.  I had the 4 pt. docking hardware put on right away.

Don't have it mounted yet, but my tour pack has arrived at Jim's shop.  Here's a shot of it.....

I'm damn happy it doesn't have the exterior antenna mount! :2vrolijk_21:
