    Need review of Corbin's Dual Touring Saddle- Heated

    Hey,

    I'm thinking of getting this for my '15 F6B for next season. I mentioned this to the dealer where I got the bike and they said that Corbin's quality has not been good in recent years and they (Corbin) just stuck them with a $800 seat (whatever that meant).

    Can anyone provide some feedback? I really looks like a good seat (two back rests)

    Thanks, and Happy New Year!

    hard

    From my own experience, Ive found them very hard. Good looking seat but hard.
    Take a look at the russell day long. I've got 2 and love them both. You'll have to send him our OEM seat. He'll custom make it for "your butt." You'll send photos he ask for and he'll take it from there. One seat at a time, is how how he builds them.
    I spent 9 hours on one (Suzuki DL1000 V-Strom), 7 of them in pouring rain. Got off felt great, my butt & back were smiling. I've never heard anybody say anything bad about them.
    Good luck with your search

    I had one. The shape was comfortable, but too hard for me.
    If you are not part of the solution, YOU are the problem.

    I have one. It is not heated. It is upholstered in black velour. I've spent 16 hour days on this saddle. It is a firm seat. They're not for everyone. It sits me in a pocket. I find it pretty comfortable. Would I like a Russel more? don't know. I got the seat from another that used to be on this forum. I bought it with both the rider and passenger backrests, the passenger backrest brackets and luggage rack from Honda(my F6B is a standard) for $450 shipped to my door. It was worth the gamble.

    No one can tell you what seat you will like.

    I have been through Stock, Stock with Utopia Backrest installed, Mustang, Ultimate with backrest installed and Corbin Dual Tour with backrest installed.

    I would have kept the Mustang IF it had an available Backrest, but it didn't. I am more that happy with my Corbin. Good quality and comfortable for me for for long rides (400 to 500 mile days).

    Although if you buy one and do not like it you CAN NOT return it.
    I've spent most my money on Motorcycles and Women, the rest I just wasted.
