Is that the same seat that is used on the CVO models?

Yes. You can get it with or without stitching and in brown or black.

Oh man. I spent a long time doing just this research. There are so many solo options and double the opinions. It really is a personal preference in the end, but seats can be a significant investment. I wanted a Backrest and that narrowed the field a bit. In the end, I ordered the Corbin Classic Solo with Ovalback Backrest. I decided to take it as designed with no changes, but went with all leather. Just waiting for it to arrive now. Expect it to be a few more weeks. I won’t really be able to try it until the spring, but hoping it will work for me. Good luck on your search. Note: I did own a Corbin and a Mustang in the past. Really preferred the leather seating on the Corbin and comfort seemed similar to me for either seat.

I am looking at solo w/ backrest too. C&C gets a lot of great reviews on here.. so i've been leaning that way. But my dad has always ridden Corbin and talks about how comfortable they are.

Been very happy with my Mustang. Been coast to coast on it but being in England that only takes 2 hours

LOL ..... I have/had all of the above including a 2018 CVO SG sear. I like the CVO seat better than the Low Profile. Just sold the Mustang. Frankly I like them all and actually rotate them on my 2 FLH’s. I’m a seat ***** .....

Looking for a solo seat be sure there is enough gap under it to conceal the tour pack harness. I bought a new CVO Street Glide seat and there was no room to stow it. I ended up with a Saddlemen Dominator. I’m a skinny *** 175 and it has taken some breaking in but it’s getting there. One thing I do like about it is that it is back rest ready and there are a couple pillion you can add if desired. Oh and the saddle has raised me and pushed me forward about an inch guessing.

This is like asking about oil!

FWIW, my wife loves her heated Corbin!
