Default Corbin w/ backrest swap?

Getting a Corbin and later adding the backrest. I still need to use my stock Road King seat for 2-up, as you know it is a simple one screw on/off. After addign a Corbin solo, will the swap abck and forth be as simple or are there different screws or brackets that will hinder my idea?

Default RE: Corbin w/ backrest swap?

My corbin solo (I assume you are going with the solo) uses two bolts that are coming up through your rear fender to attach. This is on my '99 rkc. It is no problem to swap between that and the stock seat when my wife wants to ride. My Dad however, just purchased a corbin solo and a dual tour for his new SG. The new seats have some kind of locking mechanism that does not make the swap easy. Not sure if that is just a SG seat feature or if all new Corbin's are coing with this lock. Hope this helps.
