+1 on the stock seat. I'm with you Ian. I can't comment on the Corbin, but then some people have weird shaped bums. 
2+ on the stock seat. I find sitting closer to the tank helps a lot, too, as does wearing what I call "bike shorts" on longer rides. Sitting closer to the tank helps me to grip the tank (pads) with my knees, improves handling ability, and seating position (more upright?). It just feels more natural to me than sitting on the back of the seat used to feel. I used to push back almost up onto the pillion until I discovered the sweet spot up front. I had the stock Gunfighter seat, and now the Triumph Touring seat, and they are both about the same as far as the rider position goes.
I"ll put that $600 , or whatever, into gas, tires, and new chains & sprockets. Especially seeing as the Corbin isn't universally acclaimed as the cure-all.
I've done more than a few 600-800+ mile days, and the best cure is a gas stop every 150 miles and a good bed at the end of the day.
Sure wish I was in Prescott, Az. Right now...
