Anyone got a good place to order a corbin seat from?

 

Look at Sargent Seats. They are formed gel seats. Not formed concrete like Corbin.

 

Your best bet is probable straing from corbin.com -click here-

 

There is no such place. Corbin's suck. They aren't "softer" than stock and never really break in. Also, I had to mess with bracket to get the seat bolt holes to line up even though there was a sticker on the seat that said "bracket OK" of something to that effect. WTF? If I had an '07 or earlier I would try a Sargent or get the stock seat redone.

 

A guy I worked with said the exact same thing. Their seats arehard and they don't break-in, despite what Corbin says. Do they still have their no returns policy? If so, I say screw Corbin!!! Buy something else.

 

I am pretty sure that both companies have a no return policy.

Yes, there seats are hard, but there are too many people that swear by them. It is the shape of the seat that makes the difference. It gets you off the tank and doesn't give you any "hot spots".

For example, the 06 gixxer 1000 has a much softer seat than the CBR1k, but it kills my **** after about an hour of riding. I am much more comfortable on my harder CBR seat than that soft gixxer seat any day!


In short: Soft doesn't equal comfortable.

 

I've used both seats... the Corbin is a little bit softer than stock but not nearly as soft as the Sargent. I'd recommend Sargent over the Corbin with softness in mind. The Corbin isn't a bad seat just not as impressive as the Sarg.

 

 

Looking at Sargent's web site, it appears they offer a 30-day money back guarantee. I'm willing to pay a restocking fee if necessary, but there's no way I'm buying a seat that can't be returned. That's just stupid.

 

I have a corbin...more comfortable than stockbecause it's wider,but still stiff. Qualityisn't the greatest especially for the price...$310.00.
