Well an update: C&C now offers a 13" passenger pillion. Hopefully they call me back so I can get some details. Did those who ride on C&C get the gel?

I didn't get the gel. I did get the leather seat though. Comfy!

Just ordered my first Corbin (classic solo w/back) rest today from Jenny at Tri-County HD.
Looking forward to trying it out.I have a Mustang solo w/backrest that I use now.Great seat,but on long rides my butt starts to burn. I also have a C&C solo fast back that is very comfortable and in brand new condition.Hardly used it cause I always liked the look of the solo mustang/Corbin seats better.Gonna sell it.Anyone interested?

No I didn't get the gel but for me it seems to have worked out well without it.

Hopefully they call me back so I can get some details.
Did you talk with Chuck? If so, how'd it go?

Jimmy Z - Good Luck with your new Corbin - I enjoyed many a mile with them for years.

Got any numbers in mind? May be interested if I knew a little more about it.

Unfortunately no even though he said he would call back in a few minutes. I suspect I'll have to call back myself on Monday.

I'm going to put this collection from Brouhard on my derby and points cover...

And this collection on the Dash, gas lid, and ignition switch...

I'm thinking it'd be cool to put the Cross design in the seat and use stingray for the 'silver' colored cross and stiching to outline the other two. Could C&C do this? Judging by some of their work, they should be able to.

Seats is DONE by C&C. Too bad I'll be out of town when it gets here but Chuck was kind enough to send me some pics. I wanted something different and not too over the top and this fits the bill. Chuck used a different material for the center cross to set it apart from the outside two. It'll be more obvious in person, but again I'm really happy the way this turned out. Obviously I'll take more pics when I get it on the bike, but I'm pretty excited so I had to post these!
