CORBIN SEAT: leather vs vinyl.

[oldgoat01_imp]

Just took my bike out for about an hour on the Corbin, dodging raindrops. First impressions....Hard? Yes, but certainly not like the vinyl covered 2x6's on most dual sports. The good news is that it clearly distributed my weight better. I did not feel the pain that was kicking in after about only 20 minutes on the stock seat. I did not slide forward but could move fore or aft on the seat and stay there... no slow march toward the tank. The positioning felt pretty much the same to me.

The really good news is that it is much better out of the box than the stock and I know it will only get better with age. Although, I'm thinking I got a different seat than Mr. Bee as mine only needs about 1000-2000 MILES to break it in. I'd hate to wait 2000 hours. I figure that is between 80 and 100,000 miles!
