three weeks ahead of schedule. It is one mighty tasty looking piece of horseflesh. Almost too nice to plop my keester into...almost. Film clips at eleven......or when I get it fitted.

Well, I'll say this much - after 185 mile ride yesterday the Corbin solo and my butt are not on speaking terms. The backrest part is "fabulus", but that is one FIRM seating surface. Their site says after about 1k miles things will soften up. Maybe I don't have enough junk in my trunk, but otherwise all I can do is ride it out. And pray for numbness.

Don't be fooled Daniel. Some who have been before you have panicked and shipped their's back thinking there is no way I will get a good ride out of this mother.

Bad mistake. Like I said, stick with it and you won't be disappointed. Might be hard to imagine now but have fait my son

BTW, I have the backrest too and I kept mine just for that and it so happens the seat is brilliant now too

Well, I do intend to stick with it, though my faith be 'sorely' tested. After what, thirty years, Corbin must be doing something right. Plus most here like the Corbins. But I might have to slip on my sheepskin seatcover to fool my butt. I did put on a set of Progressive fork springs and 418 rear shocks, and they are a nice change for the better. The pullback risers are working out fine also. Now just a clock and some Fasteddy stickers.....
