Talking Corbin backrest installed

Ok, I bought a Corbin backrest from LEOHD and let me tell you he is one cool Joe, even though he over charged me by $7.50... This backrest is awesome. What a difference in comfort, positive body position and support. Loving it... Thanks again Joe...

Have to build up my cash reserves before I buy a backrest, the Corbin seat and pillion pretty much killed my play money account.

THANKS for the praise, now all the leohd haters will hate you!!
but main thing is your happy with the backrest. IMHO corbins are by far the best. lexol leather conditioner works best for keeping it looking new. and no I didn't overcharge you $7.50 but if I did you know I would refund it. that is barely enough for a can of coffee. don't forget you owe me 70 cents for confirmation

Did you get the big or small one?? I've got both of them and like the big one better,
it comes up a little higher and wider.

Come on Joe, you just act like a hard a**. Deep down inside you are a warm, considerate individual who cares for other feels.
