Good info, especially on tilt forward, are you getting the Chip Beck model Corbin? Either way, please report back, not sure if I want to buy a seat or muffler next..

I went back and forth on this one. The first time I called Corbin, the guy told me if you didn't get all that fancy stitching, the foam would separate from the leather and it would not be covered under the warranty. I asked Chip about this and he confirmed with Corbin that this was not the case. So the dilemma is that I like the look of the Beck Spec seat better, but intuitively see the advantages of the stitching. In talking to Corbin again today, they said the standard model is supposed to be a bit more comfortable out of the box and is less likely to separate. I also bugged Mr. Fuzzy, who assured me that the standard was comfortable. Seems like there is always a trade-off between form and function. In any case, I went ahead and ordered the standard version today.
Next up for me is luggage, talk about a form versus function situation!
