First impression... the seat is pretty damn hard... but supposedly for long distance comfort thats a good thing not a bad one but we shall see...

The shape is the most important thing. looks like it would work well

ya its a much bigger change in shape from the stock seat but its kinda similar to how my seat was after I shaved it down...

Here's a picture of my stock seat shaved:

Here's a picture of the stock seat not shaved:

You can see on the seat before I shaved it down how it kinda goes like /\ in the middle... shaving it down brought it to more like the Corbin's shape but the foam still isn't supportive enough... Bout to go suit up and take a ride in an hour or so if anyone in the BR area wants to go for a little ride...

The BIG question is, "Did you buy the passenger seat for your other half?"

Ok Just went for a little bit over an hour ride around town and a little bit of superslab... did a little over 50 miles... I'd say its about 25% better then stock... Hopefully it'll break in and get even more comfy...
