Well, if you find out - post the results. I have been considering a corbin seat on my 09 xb12ss long.

I would really recommend you check out Baldwin seats. It's not some cookie cutter seat, he makes it custom to you. I got mine not too long ago and it is excellent! Runs about the same price as a Corbin, but Baldwin seats are by a fellow Buell enthusiast, and a really nice guy to deal with!

Here's his website:

Here's the only pic I have of my seat at the moment...photo quality is crap, will be taking some better ones very soon!

Check his site for a better example of a straight gunfighter type seat...I wanted more of a touring seat with a built up passenger area and a backrest. This is on my 09 xb12ss, too.

really recommend you check out Baldwin seats.

His seats do look really nice... I was planning on taking mine to an upholstery shop and see what they could do since I cant seem to find a cheap low style seat but know I may just order one from him.. thanks for the link

DID U GET THE BACKREST FROM THEM AS WELL?
DOES IT LOWER THE SEATING HEIGHT?
IT LOOKS REALLY GOOD!

I got the back rest from ebay, but it's the same mount as Corbin, so you could get one there as well...Baldwin does not do backrests as far as I know...

I personally did not want my seat lower...I have a 38" inseam so wanted it higher (and he moved the seating position a little further back) for a little extra room, but I bet he can make it lower if that's what you want. He really makes a custom seat and will work with you to make it exactly how you want it!

I love it...it does look good and it is unbelievably comfortable! I really need to take some more pics of it that do it justice!

i have a corbin for my 03 xb9s and i cant speak more highly of it. it is the most comfortable seat i have owned. defiantly money well spent i say. i had to put some spacers on the seat latch to make it lock in place but it was super easy. let us know what you end up going with.

[Miami78]

Tseldon, have you had to deal with Corbin for anything customer service related? I've heard some horror stories from a few people who have tried to get anything done after the sale, curious if you had any experience with it...

I did a lot of research before buying a seat to replace my very uncomfortable stock Ss seat...almost went with Corbin, but then saw the (lack of) customer service and that kind of drove me away. So glad I went will a Baldwin seat!

[tseldon]

i actually bought my seat from another user on here. it was practically new, typical wear and tear but nothing major. looks really nice and super comfy. i haven't had to call customer service for anything yet, as i have only had the seat for a few months now and its 30 degrees in chicago now so the bike is in storage/being serviced/repainted. i hope i wont have to call them or service the seat anytime soon.

Very cool...wasn't trying to badmouth Corbin or anything, was really just curious since I almost got one of their seats.

[tseldon]

i just posted a pic of my seat above(sorry i had to upload from my CPU)

Up till now i can not complain about the contacts i had with corbin. I am trying to sort out what i want and in which materials and colours.
But explain me, what could possibly go wrong on seat?
