please report your experience with corbin seat.
>>>>>>>>>
This was a personal request from giuseppe, I was planning to write to
the list regarding the seat anyway so why make double the work?
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
The Corbin seat arrived yesterday (Monday) so I have only 2 hours use so
far.
It was a little fiddly to fit, I had to adjust the hook at the rear of
seat so that it engaged properly, minor adjustment, but irritating.
The seat is definitely more comfortable than standard and it is
significantly lower, Probably about 1.5 inches, thats about 3 cm. I am
quite short about 1m 65 so this is most beneficial for me. I can now
place my feet on the ground easily, before I was on the tips of my toes.
the riding position has changed and I have had to alter the rake of the
handlebars to compensate. It also means that because I am lower on the
bike I am deeper behind the screen, good job I didn't fit that +10cm
screen that M&P supplied in error, I would not be able to see over it!!.
It's early days yet, and I have yet to get the full approval of "her
indoors" (my wife) however first impressions from the co-pilot seat are
positive as the seat is also lower at the rear and allows easier access
to the pillion.
That's all for now.
Keep the shiney side up
