I bought a second hand one off a bloke that was a lot lighter than me. Similar height. (G'day Sven.)

It went from being very uncomfortable to VERY comfortable when I lost a lot of weight and got down to the sort of dimension he had it made for.

I think they are that sort of 'custom made' - maybe.

Well Im going to plug Macdonalds Motor trimmers in Tauranga, the seat I had made there was basically (in my view) better than a corbin why? well service was brilliant TWO DAYS and the price was awesome, and the product was made in New Zealand by a biker !

What else would ya want???

Yes Quasi I have seen these seats and would recommend them to anyone.They look superb and at a good price.
PS I bought my corbin second hand at a bargain price so I'm more then happy with it.

I nearly bought a Corbin saddle for my VFR on TardMe. I'm glad I didn't - by chance, a couple of days later I got to sit on the VFR of the guy who one the auction. It was horrible.
Plus (also!) I have read SO many tales of woe from Mrkns who have bought Corbin seats, and they don't fit on right, they break, the customer service is lousy, etc etc etc.
'Rider' seats FTW! :niceone:
Now all I have to do is figure out how to justify buying one....
Perhaps my seat cover could suffer some 'accidental' damage?
