I've always sat close to the tanks on bikes. Edit to add: Can anybody comment on this?

popgun..thats what im worried about with the Corbin and is why im hesitant to get one- the reach i fear would be an issue and make riding difficult (sitting further back).
would be great to hear feedback from others on this as well..

the seat looks great! keep us posted on the ride reports if you can.. thanks

I'm the same way, but I'm small like Swartzracer. The Corbin is better than the stock seat for me, but I think that is only because the material is easier to slide around on. The "bucket" does nothing for me. The 2" Rox risers I got should help a lot, but I still haven't gotten the longer brake lines, so I'll report back later.

Soon as I get it set up. It'll be a couple of (long, annoying) weeks.
