   ;)  Robert mon chum, not a problem, it was a bit of fun,

the boxing of the seat was fun but the second picture is well worth the effort on my part and makes it what it is all about.

that smile tells it all she is happy and she will be enjoying the ride on the Corbin........damn thing was 33.6 lbs......lol......

GPS is not to get you THERE but rather to get you home from THERE

Simple solution: Buy her a bike! Second simple solution, buy yourself another one you can keep a solo....

Recovering H-D owner...W-650 Cafe' No excuses...Ride it or sell it to someone who will!

The corbin is not the problem with. the 4 bolts, putting the solo seat back on is the tough part! As most of the parts must be removed as the front hinge and the plate holding the spring to fit the corbin on!

You know what they say...

Happy Wife... Happy LIFE! ;D

You could try something like Troll did with his Nomad seat and the pillion.  But, that doesn't look as comfortable for the passenger as the Corbin.   I'm not sure how you would make the Corbin a quick-connect.  Mine is a pain in the shorts - the bolt holes don't quite line up.

I bought my drifter over a year ago. It came woth an iron horse two up that wasn't looking too bad but unfortunately I really found most two up simply ugly. My wife than told me she would never ride a motorcycle. So sold the seat and installed a singh brown solo spring seat that I simply love. It was not an easy task to make it fit as I like. Now the wife as ridden a few times with my brother anf finally got bitten by the motorcycle bug! Lucky for me I was able to find a nice corbin two up with the help of my good forum friend cdnratmanan. I installed it this afternoon, and damn I already miss the look of my spring seat....but damn this seat is comfy, just a short ride for now but can clearly understand all the hype about Corbin seat! I might have to start looking for a corbin solo......altough the spring seat is more in the line of the old school indian look I'm after! But it would be a pain to switch from one to the other unless I find a way for quick connect bolt of some sort, any suggestion? Please help me here as I want to keep the wife happy.....but don't want to loose the look i've been working on in the last year!
