Corbin seat help
I am looking for a seat that will relieve pressure on my tailbone/soft tissue. I've tried mustang and lepera but didn't find them comfortable. I started looking at Corbin and called today to get some info, but unfortunately the gal I spoke with didn't seem to know much about the seats. Can anyone speak to how Corbin's feel on one's tailbone area. Has anyone tried the Widowmaker? I'd be putting it on a 17 Street Glide. The dual tour and solo are also options.

where are you? if you are near their showroom in fl you can go in and try it on your bike. i imagine you can do the same at hollister. in addition, in hollister you can make an appointment and have your seat custom fitted for you.

I'm in Wisconsin so unfortunately that won't work.

I just put this on my new Street Glide. They call this one the Gunfighter. I had their backrest on my last 2 seats, but never used them, so I chose to go without on this one.

I’ve had a Corbin Dual Touring saddle on all 4 of the HDs I’ve owned, ‘08 Deluxe, ‘11 RKC, ‘13 Heritage, and ‘19 Electra Glide Standard. It’s the first thing I order for a new motorcycle. All day rides on all of them...

I have a Corbin dual touring seat on my Ultra. I haven’t had any tail bone pain with this seat. I have had tail bone pain with other seats, particularly the stock seat. I don’t know if this helps.

Thanks everyone. I'll try calling again. I mainly ride solo, but ride 2-up 20% of the time. The stock seat is killing me.
I also saw that Saddlemen made a seat in partnership with Kraus Moto that has a channel for tail bone relief which looks interesting.

How's the seating position on your 2019 with the dual tour? Does the passenger area slope forward? It looks that way in the pics...
