There aren't a whole lot of after-market options for our seat, but we've done some creative things. I found a Mustang seat for an old Ironhead on Ebay for dirt cheap, in great shape, similar shape to my stock seat, but the pan wasn't curved right. So I took the guts off my seat and transferred the padding and vinyl from the Mustang to my stock seat pan (also had raw Saddlemen gel insert). Had a little help from a professional upholsterer, but if I hadn't known someone to help, I probably could have winged it myself. Others have modified Sportster seats, I think someone even used a stock Vulcan seat. All depends on what you want and your amount of imagination... and a little talent....

What "style" are you looking for? What have you seen that you like?

Reply #8 - 06/15/11 at 15:13:51 Okay, I got the corbin seat mounted and took it to work today. It's only about a half hour each way so I didn't get a really good chance to test out the seat but in the short time I was in the saddle, it was way more comfy than the stock or the sporty seat. I'll hopefully get a chance to take it for a longer ride this weekend. AL

Reply #10 - 06/15/11 at 15:31:54 I was hoping for a little more room too but it does move the driver closer to the tank. I don't have forward controls but I have highway pegs and it seems okay using them. I have short legs anyway. Can't wait to go for a longer ride. Seems like there's more room for the passenger but thats what I bought the C50 for. AL
