Talking Corbin customer service

Last week I ordered The Corbin Classic Solo with the Touring Pillion. After i ordered the seat the lady told me i was looking at a 5-6 week wait. A week and a half later my seat was delivered. Took it for a test ride and love it, but i will say it is stiffer so i will have to break i in. Excellent Company bar none...

Congrats. I am on my second Corbin (Dual Tour and now a Classic Solo) and they are great for all day, day after day, riding. I also had a good experience dealing with Corbin. Some on here have not, but I did.

You're a lucky guy. I will be ordering a Corbin Classic solo for my '09 Ultra in a couple of months.

I have been on HD's since 96 and have had Corbins on ALL of them. Iam 5'6" and need the help provided by Corbin.

I always push this about Corbin

IF you are close enough or willing to ride to Hollister, CA

Corbin has what they call "Ride in appoitment" FOR NO EXTRA $$$$ - they will custom build a saddle to fit YOUR body while you wait - all done in ONE Day...

this way you not only get a great saddle but a Fantastic saddle that really fits YOU..

It really is worth the time and effort - esp if YOU are a hard to fit or picky buyer (like ME, lol). The builder spent right at 7 hours with the wife and I when he built our dual touring and tour pac back rest. He would work on the saddle then we would go for a test ride - come back work some more and another test ride - this went on until WE said - now that is perfect - then it was covered in what ever leather/colors we wanted and off we rode with our new saddle - all in one day...

Of course this only works IF you can get to Hollister - hey, its a great excuse to visit a very nice part of Ca....
