Corbin or C&C

I'm getting ready to upgrade my seat and cannot decide which way to go. I've norrowed it down to the C&C or Corbin. Options and comments would be appreciated!

Be safe

I'm a Corbin man myself. I have the Classic Solo seat on my 08 Ultra and love it. Slip the backrest in and you are ready to ride. Great quality and you can customize it to your likes at no extra cost. You'll get a zillion opinions, Good luck with your decision.

I've had my c and c with backrest for a month and a half now and love it. Chuck is easy to get a hold of and deal with. I have the sport tourer model and it lowered me more than an inch and set me back at least the same which is what I needed.
Quality is top notch.

recently went through the same decision process myself...decided on Corbin because of the wide range of options...plus I am in close proximity to their Ormond Beach shop so I could see the options first-hand. Love the seat and quality is good. Found them frustrating to deal with from a customer service perspective.

I had Corbin custom make a Tallboy seat for my 07 and I love it. I can go at least 200 miles a day further than on my HD Tallboy seat before numb *** sets in.

I have the Corbin close dual tour and have found it much more comfortable than the HD Sundowner that I used last year. Bluffalobob is right ,you can ride it much further each time.

Had a Corbin and it was like a rock. Tried to buy a fairing from them and the salesman lied to me for 6 weeks. No fairing!!! Check out Alligatorbob.com He redid my seat and it is great and he is great to work with. As for me, I'd stay a 1,000 miles away from anything Corbin does. They simply did not care that the guy lied and lied. I went to the top and Mike Corbin did not even have the decency to return my call or email. I got a call from his admin who was very nice and she said essentially, nothing. They don't stand behind their word. Just my experience.
