Corbin seat arrived and.......

[Ollie]

Thanks, I just checked and the only place the Corbin touches the tank is about an inch at the lower right side. If it scuffs there it wouldn't matter because it's hidden by the seat itself, but I put a strip of clear film there anyway. The tank paint is already abraded where the stock seat fits against it but there again it's hidden except when the seat is off. When waxing tanks I always apply extra wax there.

A standard Corbin seat's bucket is rearward about 1.25" compared to the stock seat. Anyone who likes the seating position of the stock seat should have Corbin move the riders bucket forward an inch. On the other hand if you wish you could shift back a little on the stock seat the Corbin will allow this. I find myself mostly back against the bump and it's nice not being slid forward. But it's nice to be able to shift forward a couple inches to the middle of the bucket just to change position once in a while because that section is comfortable too. This is where being flat along with the extra width in the middle of the bucket really helps.
