Default Corbin Classic Solo versus C&C solo

I'm about to buy a new solo seat along with a pillion. I currently have a Corbin Dual Tour and like it, so that makes me lean toward the Corbin.

If anyone can share an opinion on the Corbin Classis Solo compared to a C&C Solo, or C&C Wide solo I would greatly appreciate it.

Also, if anyone can tell me if the Corbin Classic Solo is as comfortable as the Dual Tour, that would be helpful.

The C&C seats are more cost effective, but I don't want to give up any comfort.

Thanks in advance for any replies.

Me too, on the dual-tour. Going with the Classic solo soon. I am not considering any other seat other than Corbin.

I’ve read a lot of good things about the C&C seats. I went with the Corbin because I had one before that worked well, and I like the look of the Corbin. Unfortunately, due to winter, I can’t comment on the comfort as I haven’t ridden on it yet. Corbin certainly seems to sell a lot of the Classic solos and I haven’t found too much negative feedback on the seat. Planning a couple of long trips this year on it, so hoping it is great!

One thing to keep in mind, talking from experience.
I have changed seats 4 times now.


One of my favorite seats is my Corbin. When I use the Corbin, you can see all the marks on the gas tank from other seats.
Me personally, I would keep to the same Manufacturer in hopes the nose of the seat is identical?


Hope this makes sense.

All I can speak to is the Corbin Classic Solo. I've had one on my last 4 Harleys including my '15 SGS. I wouldn't even consider another seat. Looks and comfort are great.

Corbin has been known for making really great seats

However, SOME folks have had a really hard time w/ customer service w/ them.

C&C Seats, well I have both the Solo and Sports Touring w/ Backrest. I ride all day w/ my Solo with no problems.

Choice which one you like best!

Had both the c&c and corbin solo on my road king. They're both great seats, perfect fit, look good and really well made. For me tho the c&c just wasnt very comfortable on longer rides, while I could go all day on the corbin.

Now that's what I wanted to know, an opinion from someone who has owned both. Now the problem, digging out $1,000 for a seat (and pillion)! I'm guessing there are no discounts; anywhere?
