I run an Agoura Customs on mine. 100% more comfortable riding position. Not the best for cushining though. I would say a little worse than stock. 2 hours seems fine in the seat but may get a little rough after that. I am 6'0" if that matters.

Damn Jeremy I wish you would quit posting with that seat on - I am going to end up having to order one. Looking good - still happy?

Yes it does, if your a tall guy probably not the seat for you unless you extend the controls, I'm 5'9" and it works for me.

If you decide to go with a Mustang solo I think I'm going to sell mine. I have the pass. seat also, and a leather cover for when the rear seat is off. I'm going to have a custom seat made for my fat ***.

The mustang looks like it pushes you forward and higher, is thst the case??

I guess that I'm the only Corbin guy!

I have the Hollywood solo. I purchased it off ebay for about $260 +-. I think it looks good on the Deuce. Kinda low-slung and contoured right for the Deuce's flow.

At first it was hard as a board. After a couple hundred miles, I either had grown acustomed to it or it had begun to form to my narrow *** - I don't know which.

I'm only 5'8". The solo was a little too wide (I think) and caused me to not be able to completely flat foot at stops. As it wore in, I began to get a little more ground reach.

Now, my wife is going along - no more solo. :-( But I still put it back on ocassionally when I know she's not going.
Did you buy it used?? Corbins take along time to break in...if you bought it used it probably was starting to break in to someone elses butt...i cant make up my mind, but think i am leaning towards the Danny Gray

I'm curious and this might be a stupid question but how does the badger solo seat mount... or any solo seat for that matter? Is it the same as stock?

No, the Corbin was a new seat fresh out the factory sealed box.

Yuu're right, I think. I have heard that they take a while to break in. Problem is, now that my wife has discovered that she actually enjoys riding along instead of just being in fear for her life (like she first believed) the solo sits in the gararge most of the time. Hard to break it in that way!
