Hello All, I noticed a few of you have studded Corbin seats with matching sissy bar pads . Does Corbin do this or are there some Triumph riding upholsterers out there ? I have the Tamer , rear pillion pad , and stock high sissy bar .

My Corbin setup came just as you see it here (sans backrest for this pic):

It's called the DT Stitch pattern. Everyone who has sat it remarks at how soft it is. wojo call it my barcalounger!

With the backrest in, I can go forever.

Looks nice. I have the flame. I still get a bit of soreass after a while, but I think I'm just not meant to sit for that long...

Your BA is a beauty , but you knew that already! I Didn't realize Corbin offered so many options for our bikes , I go to the website and see only one seat arrangement , how did you find the stitching options and sissy bar pad ? I also have the slanted factory bags like yours , and had a little trouble with the pillion feet sitting on the bag straps , I had to put a spacer under the rear mount , I don't see the straps on yours , custom mounts ?

David,

I eventually plan to purchase a $200+ Corbin, but in the meantime, I bought a bag of rivets ($2.99) & did my stock one myself.

Hey Dave,

Thank you and I found the options at http://www.corbin.com/general/. Plenty of ideas there! I saw the DT Stitch on a buddy's bike a couple of years ago and knew it was the one I wanted. I did have to ask about the sissy bar pad because I did not see it on any of the pics of the SM they have at http://www.corbin.com/triumph/tamers.shtml

I always had a problem with the pillion and the stock yoke on the bags. I got EZ Brackets and that problem disappeared although it was not my primary reason for getting them. I hated having to leave my bags on the bike in motel parking lots....

I married her!

Oh, you mean on the BIKE?

Straight from Triumph via Palm Beach Triumph. Expensive as are all Triumph aftermarket items but holding up well.
