I too have the corbin two up seat. It came on the bike when I bought it. The wife has expressed no desire to ride?? So I have place a two up seat (LIKE NEW) on the classified for sale.  I have bought a Corbin Solo seat to take its place... LOVE IT>>

I've been ;looking at 2 up seats for 8 months now. Looks like the Corbin seat is the way to go then. Actually, for a couple $$$$ more it seems like no comparison.

I agree with your review... I love mine... the seat is so stiff I used it for a while without the underlying frame (NOT RECOMMENDED) and it worked fine, though bouncie and would occasionally hit the fender. You really DO need the frame brackets for a 1500. The 800 two-up corbin has that frame work built in.

After a couple of thousand miles on the saddle, myself and the hunny got nothing but praise to give it. No wishy washy pillow feeling , hot spots seem to be a thing of the past, have not had one since switching. It definetly lowered my seating position by two to three inches, which is a plus in my book, which by default raised the passenger seating by @ least the same, I think mabey a lil more.
Construction of the saddle is outstanding, and if I compare the construction of it with the OEM two-up, I would have to say it is out of this world outstanding. Actually, I would be degrading Mr Corbin by even comparing the two. Being in the construction trades myself (site supervisor), my analogy of the basepan would be Corbin= 3/4" plywood, OEM= 1/4" masonite. In fact , was so stiff, that my tank bib, kept it from lining up with the threaded mounting holes on the frame, easy fix though, when swithing out the mouting brackets, just slightly shimmed the rear mounting studs to pull them forward. It has six or eight solid quality rubber bumpers that separates seat from frame. On my OEM seat, two of the cushy rubber bumpers pushed there way right through my basepan, leaving just big holes in it, piss poor quality. Guess I am venting a little bit for spending hundreds of dollars on an inferior product, when I could have purchased this saddle way back when. Simply put folks, if your thinking of changing your two-up seat, you will not be dissapointed going for a true "SADDLE". Gidy-up. OHH, dont forget to order the backrests. Kudos to Mr Corbin.

Stay Happy
