Just hope you never need customer service. Personally I won't give the company any more of my $$$$$. They have (I found out) one of the worse reputations in the industry for after sale support. I personally can vouch for that as my experience went all the way to their local District Attorney before they agreed to do anything.

Thanks. I may consider one of those as a cheaper alt.

About 270. That's why I like the Corbin. I've owned two Corbins. Picked up on some Forum advice and got flames on this last one. Makes a difference.

Have had two Corbins and weighed from 170 to 195 on a Dual Tour and 195 on my current Classic Solo. I would not seriously consider another brand. I had very good responses from Customer service after the purchase concerning the wrong back plate on my backrest. They immediately sent me an additional one at no charge.

I'm about 190 and bought my corbin tourer about 2000 miles ago. It has really been a kick *** seat. Absolutely no complaints here!

It really seems like its personal preference. There are a mix of people and a variety of experiences. I really think I need a seat thats firm like the Corbin.

170 pounds and 27K on a 2007 Corbin dual tour seat and thought it was/is the best thing since sliced bread, but then again I just did an IBA Bun Burner Gold 1500 on a stock 08 Road Glide seat without complaint. I do like my Corbin, but am no longer convinced they are the best thing since sliced bread.

I guess this post didn't help much, sorry.
