Hi guys.

I was wondering if any of you have a corbin seat on your bike and whether it has increased your comfort considerably?

I have been riding my ZZR600 every day for a couple of years and I don't really notice much if any discomfort. i guess I am used to the stock seat.

I would be looking to purchase one second hand and I see one that seems very reasonably priced.

Would you recommend I go for it?

Quite a few ST2 riders have gone for the Corbin as the standard seat is a little too hard for the old farts.
They're expensive i know that, and the short time i was sat on one it felt slippy(might suit some).
[still not helping you Mr. Green ]
Luckily the seat off the ST3 is the gel type and fits the ST2.

If your arse is happy, leave it alone.

To give you an idea, the seat I am looking at is 60 quid plus postage.

I presume that is 2nd/3rd hand cause that wouldn't buy you the stitching off a new corbin seat Laughing

Wink

I have already offered to buy it so now it's just a case of waiting.

I got to hold one in my hand, but not sit on one. The seat was close to twice as thick as the standard and the craftmanship was very nice.
