Dave, that was my original complaint with the seat I sent back. 5 months, nothing done, except "we will do a custom seat for $400 more, And, that would have been done a pan that didn't even sit right on the bike frame.

An ill-fitting seat pan is my biggest complaint with Corbin. When I got my RT back in 04, it came with a Corbin. It looked good, but never sat properly on the bike. The paint is worn away where the seat was rubbing up against the seat cowl and on the right side where it rubbed up against the battery cover as well, when open. The Corbin never really opened and closed properly, and was a royal PITA to remove and replace. I eventually purchased a good used BMW seat pan to have a custom seat made; however, I never found someone locally and I was unable to do ride to one of the better seat makers. So, I purchased a good used BMW seat that fits much better. I find the stock BMW seat to be as comfortable as the Corbin, so I don't see the big draw towards the Corbin. Of course, the big question now is what to do with a 30 to 35-year old Corbin seat in fair condition.
