I've had 4 Corbin seats and liked everyone of them. The most recent seat I bought for my 10 FLHT was at the wifes request before I ever road the bike. She likes the Corbin seats as much as I do.

I have a two up Corbin on my Road King (pictured) and a Classic solo for the same bike. Also have a Classic solo for my 2010 Street Glide w/ a detachable passenger pillion and love every one of them. There's a few things I will not ride without....Avon tires and a Corbin seat. Quality and comfort is out of this world!!

Love the little bit of lowering in my Corbin. It lets me get a little more bend in the knee when I'm flat-footed at a light (I'm 5' 9"-ish). Yes it was pricey, but I can't tell you one thing on or in my bike that wasn't. I love that it's pretty "convertible". The grab rail comes off with four bolts to accommodate the matching pillion. I also got the drop in rider's backrest as well as a pad for the riser on my detachable sissy bar.
It is firm, but I appreciate that a great deal when I'm in the saddle for over 500 miles, and I tend to do that a LOT!

I have a Corbin solo and ovalbac backrest. Love them, and have ridden thousands of miles. Bought the matching pillion over the phone last winter. It showed up in two weeks, so I can't complain about that. The lock is a good thing too.

I have a second hand corbin seat on my RKC. It feels firm when you first set on it, but it seems to mold your *** if you've been on it for about 30 mins. The quality is unbeatable. As for the price and customer service I can't comment as I bought the bike with the seat. I am, however, trying to find the matching pavilion seat so I will probably be ordering from them soon. Let me know how it goes.

This is my second Corbin. The seat is well made and comfortable. I ordered mine directly from Corbin and the turn around time was great! They forgot to include the quick release seat screw and they sent the screw on a 2 day from the postal service.
Corbin's seats are pricey but for the quality, comfort and appearance the seat is well worth the price. I am completely satisfied with Corbin's customer service and the quality of their seats.

So I have heard nothing but good when it comes to seats made by Corbins other than they tend to be a little firm at first. Right now I am looking at the Young Guns for my 2008 SG. Question I have is where do you think I may be able to find the best deal for this seat? Is there another seat you would recommend to look at? I am leaning towards something low profile that will flows nicer with the lines of the bike. This bike is a weekend cruiser and that's that. Thanks for the help!

Wow guys, thanks for all the great feedback! I am still really leaning towards the Corbin but I will check out the other manufacture for sure. Any other spots on the net where I can order one? Thanks for the help again!
