I have the Corbin Gunfighter with removeable backrest and i can ride for hours in comfort. I ride with several other guys with Corbins and they all agree on the comfort.

I could not get used to the Corbin studded solo I owned about 7 years ago. The quality of the seat was stunning but the stiffness of the seat created some serious posterior hot spots even after the 'break in' and the 'scoop' of the seat shape didn't leave much movement. Wonder if they changed the seats since then?

ORIGINAL:
...mostly due to muscle aches from the slightly different seating position.
What's different about it? Does it put you closer, further back, higher, lower? I've been thinking about getting one of these also, but concerned about the change in position. I have the stock solo on it (bob) now, but with the new forward controls, it puts me just a little further back than I would like.

THANKS!

I have the Mustang wide solo. Haven't had a chance to go for any extended rides yet however.

That being said - The seat has already been broken in by the previous owner and fits me just fine. We'll see after 3+ hours in the saddle though. If you have the $$ - Corbin has an excellent high end rep. My boss rides Corbin, 1/2 my truck drivers (I'm a dispatcher) ride Corbin.

2 others ride Mustang and the others ride stock.

For me it's a money thing. I'll have to see how this one sits over hours before I can decide to commit 5-6oo$.
Wife can find a few more things that she values more than my rear end for 5-600

Mustang tends to have a good "bang for the buck" reputation. We'll see !
