Just received a Corbin seat for my 2015 RGU, it does not fit correctly and hard as a rock. Corbin insist it is the correct seat and will not fix it. Their customer service sucks, very condescending, this is my second seat from them first one was great. I will never buy their product again and suggest you look at a different brand.

Any update on the outcome?
I thinking of getting one...but concerned about the fit issue.

Thanks

I was thinking about a Corbin as well, but I'm not sure about the close version. I already feel like I'm too close to the tank and bars. As for the charging plug. The dealer sold me the bike with mine hanging out the bottom of the left side cover. It seems like there is a cutout for it and you can hardly see it. A little close to the pipe, but I have a ghost pipe on that side now, so there is no concern for heat. With a functioning pipe and muffler on that side I would definitely tuck it up inside the cover after winter's end.

I have Corbin Solo Tour and love it. Brought me back a few inches so I can stretch out on bike.  I have backrest too. You can adjust angle or allow it to swivel by adjusting pivot point screw in actual backrest. Lower pivot point screw pushes backrest forward or backward. Check out attachment. Corbin should do a video showing how to adjust.

Thanks, I have never seen this. I called Corbin about adjustment and they never mentioned this  drawing. Thanks Billy

Can you please confirm billy if this is as the drawing shows ,as you have I believe the corbin solo, which I am thinking of getting also (it's only the lack of backrest adjustment that's putting me off)
Does then the backrest indeed let you adjust it both in rake adjustment and tilt of the backrest pad,ie two way adjustment like mustangs do?
As I thought the lower set screw under the flap was only for securing the backrest post to the seat frame and didn't allow any adjustment,

Very Interesting.  I have never seen this.  I am sure going to take my seat off and see if I can move it forward like the drawing. Will be a few week until I get  chance to check this out, but can't wait.

I will look at it tomorrow but I don't think that the dwg is correct for my solo seat. Billy

Drawing is correct for my Corbin backrest. Tilt upper part of backrest fully forward to access small Allen screw.

[msemersky]

Large screw in seat allows backrest to move forward or backward.

[msemersky]

Small screw in backrest adjusts how far angle it will allow.

It is winter in Chicago so bike is in storage. I apologize for the bad pictures. Rotate top pivot fully forward to access upper pivot screw. Make's all the difference in the world being able to position where it is comfortable.

Hmmmm........looks promising if you do have the dual adjustment!
 i wonder if this is the same adjustment available on the corbin classic solo and gunfighter seat

[SneakyPete]

I just installed a new classic solo on my SERG and I don't have the different length screw adjustment.  I recall I did have this feature on my dual tour for the SEEG.  Seems it's not available on all models.

[Billy]

I called and it is not available on the  solo which makes it useless if you ask me. Billy

That explains why I never noticed it on my solo.  Was hoping it was there and I just missed it.  Sure seems like it should have it.
