Corbin seat

[Dieselman7.3]

I picked up a decent condition Corbin Gunfighter/lady gunfighter seat with the back rest on Saturday. My other half and me went out for a ride yesterday evening.... 50 miles later she's looking for the longest way home.  I do personally like the seat but this has made her like riding and like the Fj a lot.  Know I/ we can put some miles on instead her wanting to take the car every where

Fred, wanted to say I've been using the seat you sold me at Hayfork for my daily commute, and I can't say enough about the comfort. The seat is absolutely perfect. I regularly get "numbnuts" with my gunfighter/lady seat, but the contour of your seat seems to have eliminated that completely. When I get my seat re-done, I think I'll ask Corbin to match it.

Custom Corbin?
I'm going to need mine recovered this winter but the price was right and now the ole lady wants to go riding all the time

Yes Rick, inquiring minds want to know more.

The contour in the crotch area is a little narrower, which seems to relieve the pressure normally placed directly on my taint, which affects blood flow to parts we would prefer not be starved of blood flow...

I particularly liked the flat section at the rear of the seat. Other gunfighter seats I have seen have a large hump there, that upsets the line of the tail, in my estimation. This is a very clean look, it flows well with the bike's lines. First class workmanship and design.

Ahhhhhhh, so it's a solo seat.  That design helps with the numbutts?  I got fierce numbutts on the way back from the WCR.

I think it's the narrower cushion towards the front that relieves the pressure.

That is sleek looking, I /we have not been on a long enough ride for me to have complaints yet  we're planning a decent trip Saturday (excited not to have to work this weekend)  so we'll see how it is after a couple few hundred miles

Here is a photo of the seat as I got it. This is the period correct 1984 Corbin Gunfighter Solo seat. When I had the seat recovered, I had the passenger seat flattened and the very far forward rider section narrowed where your inner thighs would be when you have your feat on the ground.

Sorry for the blurry photo, it is the best I could pull off of my old eBay file.

I like that a lot. Corbin do that or someone else?

I had a local upholstery shop here in Wichita, KS do the job for me.

I'm gonna see about the seat narrowing when I have mine re covered. Thank you
