This is the seat on my 2013 CB1100 with the red welts, many people have commented how nice the red looks with the rest of the bike.
I also have a similar one on my 2014 but without the flap on the back for a back rest, I never have a passenger.
If any one is interested in this seat it is for sale for $350 and I pay shipping. I would than order another one without the flap.
If not I just keep it , I really like the Corbin seats on all of my bikes.

That seat is beautiful.

Is the seat lower, higher or same as stock height where your bum fits?

How many miles do you have on the seat and what material is the seat covered with?

Gentlemen,

The sides of a Corbin seat art synthetic material but the seating surface is genuine leather. It's cooler, more comfortable, and doesn't make you sweat like a Naugahyde seat would. The downside is that in rain the leather will absorb moisture and a Corbin seat should be covered or removed when you wash the bike. I put the stock seat on my bike before washing it to keep my Corbin seat dry.

The Corbin seat I used was so hard it left red welts on my ass.

Now there's a vision I don't want stuck in my brain...

My Sargent seat was hard like that too.

And here we thought you were a real hard-ass.

The only 70 HRC butt-cheeks in captivity!

I always buy the ALL vinyl Corbin seats, water proof and hardly any up keep.
On some of my bikes they were 25 years old and looked like new.
This seat has the tomato red piping on it and has about 1500 miles on it.
Having 4 bikes they each get 25 % of my riding miles.
When I got the 2014 Corbin seat without the flap I just swap them over and do not use this one any more.
On the stock seat I used to slide forward and on the Corbin seat you can slide back and get the support of the passenger part.
I think that overall the seat height is the same.
