Two of my bikes have Corbin seats. Maybe I'm used to them, I like them. Took a while to get used to. No problem with long rides. But then, I like sleeping on the floor too. I never felt secure on the OEM seats. Move around too much, no feel through them either.

One of the problems is that it was very hot, and that takes an awful amount of energy from your body. I don't have a windshield (and I rode mostly on highways), BUT (and this is the important point), I have replaced the stock seat with a Corbin. At this point, I'm not sure if this Corbin seats are really better over the stock ones. I really like the riding position with the Corbin, and I almost don't move back and foward as it happends with the stock seat, but the Corbin is hard as a rock. I feel all the the little bumps, cracks, holes, and any other inperfection on the road. I haven't tried to do the same miles using the stock seat, so I can't compare 1 to 1. Does anybody here feels the pain? Javier.
