Corbin Seat - First Impression

[ItsPhilD]

I finally did get a chance to get out for about 150 miles this past weekend with about 50 of those miles being 2-up.

My first impression is that the Corbin saddle with driver's backrest installed is a tremendous improvement over the woefully inadequate stock seat. I experienced no burning spots nor did I feel the need to squirm around to find a more comfortable position.

My passenger did affirm, as she first stated, that this is the most comfortable seat she's ridden on any of the BMW I've owned. We got her backrest adjusted just right with minimal hassle.

Looking forward to putting some touring miles on as the weather cools down.

Thanks for the info. As of this past weekend, I still haven't seen this pop up on the Corbin site.

Does the new seat sit you further back compared to the stock seat? Any increase or decrease in height?

Corbin gave a seminar to BMW on pricing or Visa/ Versa I have had many Corbin saddles and they all have been expensive I think my seat has finally broken in or my ass has any way the seat seems much better than when it was brand new and it only took 5000 miles.
