Just curious if anyone here has the Corbin solo seat w/pillion, and what they think so far?

I'd love to get the dual tour, but there's this ongoing issue with being too short for the sissybar, which I'm not willing to give up... also, most of my riding on the TBird will be solo, and I'm thinking it would look stunning set up as a solo rider, so Corbin's my only option if I still want a rider's backrest.

I've got the solo sans pillion. See my album for pics.

Love it, BTW!

i have both and love mine, the girl felt the pillion was to small, and i had to mod the sissybar to make it work. corbin is currently making me a new seat based off the triumph long haul pillion. you may be able to toder it when they are finished not sure. i will post pics when i get it back.

flipped it around, then used propane to bend it to work with the seat.

By heating it up enough to bend, did you have to re-chrome?
