After reading all the positive and negative reviews, and being in the market for a seat, I thought I would take a ride to Corbin. I sat there for over a hour, while they addressed issues with Harley riders. They are a Harley seat maker. They don't give a damn about any other type of bike. If this is they attitude on the front side of a sale, then I would not expect ANY post sales or warranty help.

Yesterday I saw a well-worn but totally intact Corbin seat on a 1999 R1100 with 27,000 miles. I liked the shape and the way it looked on the bike, and it looked confortable. If I could be assured of getting a seat like that I would order one in a heartbeat. Alas, the posts on this thread indicate that they've gone waaay down-hill since they made that seat, so I am going to pass on Corbin.
