 Honest Opinions Please - StreetFighter_imp - 06-14-2015

I have three seat color options and I'm stuck for choices so, I'll let you guys decide which one is better.

One of these my daughter picked, one my wife picked, and one I picked.

Please use the poll to vote.

Mate, are you serious? Without even looking it is obvious that the only choice is that of your wife's. Believe me please.

As I live a long way away I would go for red.

Cheers

Which one do you think is my Wife's choice? Or are you saying that because she's the wife?

She has her own bike so, I'm good either way. Wink

Gotta go with basic black. Let the wife choose her own seat.


RE: Honest Opinions Please - Pterodactyl_imp - 06-14-2015

Mate, you just don't get it. Just say "Yes darlin', why didn't I think of that?"

Cheers

Quite honestly don't like any of them. Someone was selling a Corbin seat for the cb1100 on eBay with the red sides and nobody bought it because it looked hideous. I think black on black would be the safest bet, the red will never match your bike if your bike is red and the orange, well its orange?? To each their own but if you wanted an honest opinion that's mine.
The only other color option I've seen which looks really cool is the brown leather look.



RE: Honest Opinions Please - the_undecider_imp - 06-14-2015

If you need a splash of color, stick with just the stitches and piping (Corbin calls them "welts."). Even in balck, I am not a fan of the textured or patterned leathers, but to each their own.


RE: Honest Opinions Please - uscgmac_imp - 06-14-2015

Totally agree, the pattern or snake skin would not go with the design of this bike, I would keep a classic theme going. Maybe a nice roll stitch with black on black thread or a nice all black or brown Retro cafe seat but no colors and no patterns like gator or snake.

I would pose the question back to you on this: Are you building a girl's bike, a woman's bike or a MAN's BIKE? Big Grin

BTW, my vote definitely goes for the all black one.
