Corbin Seat Impressions

Corbins are not cheap. I infer the Issue is camouflage as much as comfort. Google King and Queen seats for whichever Bonneville has emptied your wallet.

Well, I'm monolingual so can't interpret your posts, @pyer. But coincidentally (or not!) I was at my local H-D dealership a couple of days ago and the guy who bought my 2016 Thruxton R a couple of years ago rode up on his new Rocket 3 GT. He had a really nice Corbin seat on it that looked great. He said he's super happy with it and that he found the position suited him quite well and that it's very comfortable. I didn't ask him the price. Good luck with you seat search. I'm on the lookout for a seat myself but not a Corbin and not for my Triumph. Please post a pic or two when you make your decision and put it on your bike!

 

An idiomatic translation....

I would welcome the opinions of those who have fitted a Corbin seat. Ever sInce my wife draped her graceful buttocks over a Moto Guzzi she has been disinclined to jump on the Bonnie on the basis of a lack of rear cover. With a Corbin seat the rear portion is about 4” higher - about as much as my wallet has shrunk since shelling out for the Bonnie. The things we do for our ladies......

 

I’m intrigued by the idea of graceful buttocks being draped

 

Well literally he says ‘placed’ but that kind of jars with gracieuses which I have faithfully translated. Polite enquiry would halt here, non?

 

Very comfortable for both of us.

 

Very nice, Timothy! I definitely like how that Corbin looks on your Triumph. Glad to know it's comfortable too. Good looking bike all the way 'round.

 

Avec étriers?

(With stirrups?)

It looks great on the Speed but I have decided to get it re-fashioned by a saddler.

Peut-etre?
