opinions on a good seat?

I was wondering if anyone had a Corbin seat on there bike and is it worth the price?

Corbins are nice seats. I'm not sure how much they are since I never bought one, but the stock seat on an R6 is pretty good. You don't like the R6 seat? If I had a Honda RR, I'd get a corbin though because those Honda stock seats are horrible. Like a wooden plank...

corbin seats are really comfy..worth the money

Does anyone know how thick this seat is? I have my 6 lowered 3" in the back and I can not touch flat.

sorry about the double post

Thanks, I decided that I will tuff it out with the stock seat. I was looking at it this weekend and the stock seat is pretty thick close to the tank, which is where I sit. I thought that my ass was big enough to offer some cushion, but I gues not :hammer

I can't get my feet flat on the ground, but I've managed alright. You get used to it after a while.

IMHO, Corbin's suck... I had one on my '01 R6 and it was less comfortable than the stock seat. Also corbin's use a steel seat pan so the thing weighs a ton. I'd recommend sending in your seat to Sargent's to have it reupholstered for you. I had mine done for about $225 and it's extremely comfortable for those 250+ mile days. YMMV

NYC, did Sargents use some new super foam when they did your seat? I can't see how reupholstering it would cause it to become that much more comfortable... I too am looking for a more comfortable seat. It's the only thing keeping me from going on those 300mile rides to Seattle...

I am looking at getting a Corbin seat for those long rides on my 04 R6. My Problem is that I only have a 30" inseam. It would be great if the Corbin is a lower profile seat than stock...maybe I could flat foot it. If it raises me, however, I will not get a Corbin. Does anyone have any experience with this? I would really like to know which is a lower profile seat (stock or Corbin) before I spend $250!!!! Maybe I didn't look close enough on their website, but I don't see where it says that Corbin makes customer thicknesses n their seats...please help.
