Corbin Classic Solo Seat ?? - Do the tour pak cables fit under it?
I have a 2010 Ultra Limited and I am wondering if I install a Corbin Classic Solo seat will my lighting and speaker wires fit under there?
Also does the bracket they give you which attaches to the two frame studs under the seat have to be removed every time you put the two up seat back on?
Thanks

Do you have a piggyback tuner that takes up extra room under seat?
bracket will have to go on and off- it's quick and easy
not sure about the audio/cb ant cables ( because i have Classic)- I cut the factory lighting harness back under the seat and made my own harness using a flat 4 trailer plug.
from the splice, the wiring runs down under the side cover, then along the frame.
when the t/p is off the trailer plug is attached to the top of the shock with velcro.
and the mating plug is on the tour pak.
with my set up, I have no wiring under the seat...which would leave room for audio/cb cables if i had them ( with no tuner).
the reason I changed wiring was i added extra stuff into my tour pak and needed that 4th conductor ( ground/run light/brake/& aux for added internal lighting and some other stuff)
don't know if that would work for you or not-
( BTW my personal experience with Corbin has been very poor for product support/ customer service- I wouldn't give them my money again)

Are you talking the Corbin pilion? If so, no, it gets left on the bike. If you're talking about swapping between the solo and your stock seat, I don't think the stock seat would fit with the bracket left on the fender. I never tried it with my RK and Corbin but I don't think it would work.

I had an 01 Ultra Classic with a Corbin Solo Tour seat. I also had the quick release option to take my tour pac off. With the Solo Tour I was able to hide all cables for speakers, antennas as well as electrical and communication. It's a lot of cables to hide. I'm nots sure about the classic solo but I think you can do it.
I am one who likes Corbin seats. I now have a 2011 SG and three weeks ago purchased a new Corbin Solo Tour (but no cables to hide). The main reason I bought the solo tour is due to my wife rides with me from time to time. I like the option for the two back rests. This back of the seat is a bit high but I think once I add a rack it will look better. I'll be using a rack for luggage.
