I have had Corbin's on all 4 of my touring bikes -- love their seats -- their customer service sucked big time in 06 and has not gotten better.

 

I've got the mustang three piece (comes with a rider backrest) and I like it a lot- Have about 15k miles on it with no complaints.

 

+1 on C&C!

 

The problem with this option is the fact it's a one piece 2 up seat. I DO NOT want a one piece two up. My wife won't ride with me often and I don't want a two up seat on my bike the whole time b/c I don't like the look. If I had a tour pack permanently on all the time, it'd be a different story.

I suppose I'll check out C&C again due to the recommendations, but it seems like I ruled them out for some reason before. Comfort and looks are equally important to me and I know they make some great looking seats, just don't know about comfort.

 

Are you going to get one for Black Betty or go with something else?

 

I like the look of the Danny Gray "Big Seat" for Street Glides and Road Glide Customs. I bought the Big Seat on recommendations from others, and I never sat in one. First impression is that it's kinda hard, although so is Corbin. I bought it late in the season so I didn't get a chance to do any road trips, but I have been in the Big Seat for 6 hours with no problems. I'm 6'3''/185 lbs and I think it's very comfortable.

It sits you low and really gives you that feeling of sitting "IN" the motorcycle as opposed to some touring seats that make you feel that you're sitting "ON" the bike.

Hope this helps.

 

Great feedback.

 

I've never ridden a solo Corbin, but I've done 14-15 hour days on my Dual Tour. Hands down the most comfortable seat I've ever used. The C&C on my Night Train doesn't compare favorably at all as far as comfort is concerned.

 

I've had both, DG and Corbin seats on a couple different bikes. Outstanding quality for either one. However seat fit/comfort is so difficult to predict for someone. What's a perfect seat for me could be miserable for you and vice versa. You can only try them and see if it fits you. Sell it on the forum here cuz plenty of members here will snap it up if it doesn't happen to fit you.

I'm running the DG solo Big Seat for the past few months and it's been comfortable for me. I haven't had it on a long trip though. I ride just over an hour each way to work each day and have logged 100 mile runs on it no problem. But can't say how it would be after 10-12 hrs cuz haven't done it on this seat.

Corbin seats are HARD/FIRM to say the least, but if it fits you properly it's perfectly comfortable for many hours a day. Other guys here can't spend 15 minutes in a Corbin without being miserable. Just varies from rider to rider.

 

Thanks for the feedback everyone. In regards to the C&C, the pillion they offer isn't nearly as wide as Corbin or DG and it has suction cups on the bottom of it which I don't think I like, seems chintzy besides those suction cups will be absolutely useless after being smushed flat for several hours. Corbin and DG have the same supplier according to DG but DGs foam is softer.
