Thanks all for the input. I ended up ordering the Classic Solo and Touring pillion. Had them move me forward 1/2" and add 1/2" padding to the rider backrest to put me in the stock position. I'll add my impressions after I get it (about 4-5 weeks).

By the way, I don’t want to sound too much like a Corbin fanboy, as their prices are really way too high and their customer support stinks, plus the Heritage seat is probably the worst of all the ones I had from them.

But…

Last weekend I went for a 4 hours ride only stopping for petrol half way through (on top of a 1 and a half hour to get there).

I did the same ride a few months ago on the stock seat and afterwards I was so sore I could barely sit for three days.

last week on the Corbin, I was absolutely fine after the ride, so much so that I went for another cheeky ride the following day.

I'll say it....I'm a Corbin Fanboy. Have had Corbins on all of my bikes. Why purchase 4 times when you can purchase once.
300-400 mile jaunts are a walk in the park on this seat.
