Default Best places to buy a new Seat

Title says it all, I'm looking into to buying a new seat for the 02 F4I and I am open for suggestions on places to make this purchase.
Also what kind of selection do I have when looking for a seat, is Corbin the only one ?

I wish they did seats for the newer F4I's
The last one they did a seat for is the 03 model IIRC. I've been bugging them to at least let me know if the 00 model could fit since they look the same on the outside. And I don't know anybody that has that year model to take a look and see if it's the same on the inside or not.

They do. Just not labeled as such. The 04-05 F4i seats are identical to the 99-00 F4 seats here is a link.

Once again thanks

sargent also has seats.
if you're handy, you can redo your existing seat. cut off some of the foam and replace with a gel pad and then restaple the skin back on.
someone from another forum has done it and claims it's super comfy. he no longer drags his knees cause he refuses to get off the seat it's so comfy!

can't believe those places are cheaper than manufacture direct mang!

I called Corbin about this. They told me that the '04-'06 F4i underseat is completely different than the '99-'00, and that this model WOULD NOT fit the new F4i's. They also told me that they were working on a new seat for the new F4i's and it would be ready in a few weeks. This was months ago. I've since seen threads from folks all over the place that report being told the same thing. I think it's their standard line of crap. I'd be very interested to know if this seat does actually fit. Keep us posted.
