| I have been having back problems with the stock seat and have decied to buy a Corbin. I am not interested in pros and cons of this seat. I have ridden on one on a Swing and Own multiple others. Where can you get one cheaper than Corbin directy? maxB (Who's back is killing him) |

| I'm not sure if that is possible Max since I have never heard of other stores selling them. It's too bad you can't ride out here to Hollister, Ca to have them fit it on your bike here. Then you could break it in on the way home.  Tell us what you find out, maybe you can get a used one from someone selling their Swing. _________________ Ride safe, JeffR 2007 Silver Wing (30,000 miles) 2005 Majesty 400 (sold 12,500 miles) 2004 Reflex (sold 3,500 miles) Givi Windshield, top case, vista cruise, power commander, dr pulley sliders, air hawk seat pad, (J.

| Actually corbin does have a dealer network. However I don't understand what benefit you get from it, other than having a local dealer install it. _________________ I ride on two wheels cause I feel very unsafe on one wheel.Dan in Miami.

| Because the whole Corbin dialog has been beat to death on the other threads and forums.  |

| Max, I bought my Corbin Seat (including a Corbin backrest) for $375. I saw an ad for a guy in NC selling his 1700 mile Silver Wing. I emailed him asking if he would sell me his Corbin and just put the stock seat back on and still sell it for about the same price. He agreed, sold me his corbin seat, and put the stock seat back on. He shipped it to me in Illinois after I sent him the money, and it all worked out. That's a win-win deal for sure. |

| Dennis, I did this a few months ago and installed it the night I got it. I always wanted to get a Corbin seat, and I must have went to Corbin's sight 20 times to order one, but I could not justify the price. The guy I bought this seat from was the 2nd guy I suggested it to. The first guy did not have his original seat. I offered to sell him mine, but that deal did not work out. |
