    Agree. I needed bar risers and Air hawk and now it is the most comfortable bike I've ever owned.

    Actually, when you call Corbin, they will build the seat to your specifications---higher, lower-back-forward, etc... if you know the direction you want to go. They will also do a different color and stitch pattern at no additional cost. I did not know that until recently when I had a seat custom built for my Valkyrie.

    Can you remove the side covers without removing the Corbin seat?

    The Corbin I bought in 2013 doesn't allow me to take the side panels off without taking the seat off. From what I understand Corbin redesigned the seat to allow the panels to be removed with the seat on.

    I had no problem removing the side panels with my Corbin.
    I've spent most my money on Motorcycles and Women, the rest I just wasted.

    Corbin (in my opinion) is like riding on a 2x8 board. Very hard, if you like hard, go Corbin. I'll never buy another one.
    Ultimate is good, Russell Day Long is the best (in my opinion) most comfortable & the best money you'll spend on any upgrade.

    I have had a Corbin saddle on my last two bikes. "Wouldn't leave home without it!" It does definitely have a significant break-in period. It was explained to me as breaking in a horse saddle. The longer you set in it the more "Broke-in" it becomes and fit to your butt. That is what I have experienced it both my saddles.
