Corbin and other seat reviews.

[Zebedee]

I have 2" up and 2" back risers fitted as I wanted to sit further back in the seat to change the angle at the knee's for added comfort.
OEM Seat 1hr and it's killing me arse and knee's as I am unable to maintain the seating position I wanted (keeps pushing me towards the tank) due to shape of seat.
Top Sellerie (Standard) tried one of these due to the different shape which after sitting on Flatfour's felt like it would do the job, better but after 2hrs and much the same, better job to remain seated where I wanted to be yet still a killer on the knee's but deffo an improvement on the OEM seat.
So the Corbin, initial impression was bloody hell it's low and OMG its hard
Well done about a 1000miles on it now and today a 4 hour, 190ish mile ride round the 4 counties with no stops.
The shape of the seat makes you sit a lot further back from the tank and stay there so that solved that issue I now sit exactly where I wanted to be and as hoped has improved  the knee angle being lower also helped which was a surprise (thought I would need to be higher) the most surprising thing was that although the seat is very hard compared to the others it is very very comfortable and after a long day in the saddle I have yet to suffer any significant side affects.
All I get now is some mild back pain but that will be resolved in a couple of weeks when she goes in to MCT for the suspension set up as it's a little to hard for a lightweight like me, oh and I am having physio for a injury to my back :( which is probably the main cause lol.
I am in no way saying that a Corbin seat will be right for everyone but for me it is the Dog's and if I needed to I would buy a new one as it suits me and my setup perfectly.

I have the Corbin.. I love the style of it and how I don't slide forward like the stock one, BUT it's bloody hard on my little behind. 

I did 2 hours on Monday on the way to Dover before I had to stop and free up my stiff joints and get some blood around my rear end..

  at last 

Me and Loz did 786 miles on the Top Sellerie in one hit last week.......left at 2am got to first stop at 5pm after a delay at the tunnel. Its surprising how comfy seats get when your heading for 28 degree temps,,,,,constant sun,,,,,sea and sand,,,,,and free beer,,,,,,,
