Has anyone had any experience with the Corbin seat on the F6B yet? Are you further back or taller? When it rains does that bucket fill up with water and become a problem. I really like the looks of the Corbin, just wonering about living with one.

Not on my F6B, I had one of their seats on another bike I owned. That (learning) experience kept me from ever putting one of their "seats" on any bike from that point on. Several other options exist, especially if you want to ride your F6B. Or go with Corbin for looks and keep the kickstand down.

I had a corbin on my 2001 Valkyrie.:headbang: Hard as hell at first :motorcycle2: but sat like a champ for 12 years and 85,000+ miles. Loved it! :yes: Will buy again. But damn :077: if you want a backrest you will need to take out a second on the house. :iduno: A bit expensive. :soapbox:

Put a Corbin Seat on one of my BMW's....HARDEST damn sat I have ever had. Rick Mayer is a much better choice. Corbin....NEVER again.

Too hard for my taste but they look really nice. Tried them during my Harley days, don't think I will again.

I rode to his shop in Northern California. He made me an awesome custom seat while I waited for my 2006 K1200GT BMW.

I had a Corbin on my 88 V-max - looked awesome, but WAY too hard.

I'm riding to Rick Mayer next week!

We had a gorgeous Corbin seat on our '09 Kawi Concours.
It was kind of like a Harley- looking at it was about all it was good for.
Seat was a rock- never did "break in" like Corbin said it would. It gives the phrase " atomic monkey butt" new meaning. :moon:
About an hour and a half was all we could stand at any one time before we had to get off of it.
I've sat on aluminum stadium seats that were more comfortable.

I've had Corbin seats on my:

CBR1000RR
V65 Magna
VFR1200
GL1800 (my husband's)
and now my F6B as soon as they get done fooling with it.

I love them all!

It just depends upon wither your arse fits like an out-of-box arse, or your get it custom fitted..:icon_rolleyes:
