Default Corbin Classic Solo seat

Anyone used one before? I want a solo seat with a seat rail for the nostalgic look and this is the only one I've found so far.

I had one (no rail) on my RKC. My new RG will get one as soon as the bike arrives. Corbin is the most comfortable seat I've been on.

not a classic, but I went to Corbin and had them customize my seat to my taste/fit. Started out with a Hollywood Solo, then created my own rear seat from scratch.

I love their service! They give you a free lunch in their restaraunt while you wait as well. Or you can help the techs do the job... very kind people!

Where is Corbin's factory? That sounds like a fun day to spend, custom-ordering a seat and going home with it!

I had the Classic Solo on my 1100 V-Star and liked it alot. Very high quality and once you've broken it in (takes a few hours in the saddle to get it to conform to your butt) it fits you like a glove. It's a very firm seat but is quite comfortable once broken in.

Not TOO far from ya... up here in Nor CA, Hollister to be exact. Here's their site: Corbin
You have to make an appointment and back then there was a few month wait.

No seat rail, but the stock cop air ride seat has that nostalgic look. Plus there is simply not a more comfortable seat made, anywhere.

I have also been considering a corbin classic seat, but I would prefer it if there was a backrest available. It just doesn't look like there is any back support on the Hollywood Solo seat...I guess I'll keep looking.

I have a Classic Solo with the back rest on my RKC. I've had it on for over a year now and love it.

This will probably be the best upgrade you will ever spend on your bike.

I love my Classic Solo. You will not believe the difference in comfort. I also highly recommend the ovalback backrest. I use mine all the time, even for short rides. Yes the combo is expensive, but it is worth every cent IMHO.
