I ordered the Corbin passenger pad for my Mrs. I adjusted the stock rest up 4" which placed the top of the pad at 10" but it is falling about 2-3" short of where it would give her the best support (she's use to a top box). I feared going any higher given the leverage placed on the base of my risers at the current height. I'll let you guys know what she thinks once it arrives.

Very interested in your report. You are going to use it with the stock seat?

Chipmaker, yep going to keep the stock seat on her for now, BUT I wouldn't put the Corbin seat on her anyhow. Last Corbin seat I had was on an 86 Goldwing and probably the worst seat I've ever owned. Just WAY too stiff. If I decide the stock seat needs work it will go to Russell for a rebuild. I really hate to promote any brand but once you own a Russell seat, it is VERY hard to live without. I need to get out for a 4-500 mile day and see how the stock seat shakes down, unfortunately I've just had one little thing after another come up to prevent me getting out. Maybe tomorrow:icon_wink:.

Anyhow I will post some pics and a review once it arrives.
