Rob,
That's an incredible story! I didn't know about the
no return policy. I bought mine during Bike Week of
97 and was told of a "Special Bike Week price".
I later found out it was no "special " price at all.
Quality control is very poor on these products and
would NEVER pass in any other industry. Ditto for
customer service. I special ordered mine and did
not want the back rest hole in the rear. Of course,
it arrived with the hole in the rear, covered with
a Corbin emblem that was sewed on crooked. I was
so excited about the seat that I accepted it when
it arrived UPS and have looked at the crooked emblem
ever since. The crooked emblem draws attention like
a crooked picture on a wall and people point it
out and lift the velcro tab before I can say anything.
There they find an UGLY hole to nowhere and say
"What's this for?" Very embarrassing to say the least.
The pan weights a ton over stock and wore my paint
off the side covers. Quality is hit or miss. I had
ordered a Corbin for my ZX7 prior to the GTS and it
fit perfect. Never realized how lucky I was.
When the time comes for a reskin on my GTS seat
I'll probably have Sargent or some other recover
it just out of principle. Sorry about being long.
