accessories » Corbin saddle and smuggler tank.

Way to paintmatch, Corbin. I hear what they want to do about it tomorrow. I waited 8 weeks for this to come in, slightly frustrated.

I thought this kind of thing only happens to me, my smuggler was suppose to be painted light grey with a blue stripe. But IMG_20170603_090616173_HDR.jpg - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte)



I liked the blue with the granite stripe better.

That looks great, matches the tank. That’s what I was looking for too, a silver center stripe to match the tank.

Looks nice, even with the wrong colors.

How big is the trunk, and can you post a picture of the inside?

I agree it does look nice and it’s made really well. I just feel like when I spend this kind of money and they sell it as paint matches I should get what I paid for. I’ll take a picture for you when I get home tonight.

It's 9.5 liters capacity

I have a Smuggler on my Ducati ST3S. How comfortable is the RS Smuggler seat? The Ducati seems to have two areas. Close to the tank, the seat feels like an anal probe after about an hour. Things improve if you scoot back. I find the RS seat very comfortable for a stock seat, so I’m reluctant to spend that kind of money for a less comfortable seat. But, I like the Smuggler storage for phone, wallet and ammunition.

I like my Corbin saddle, but you don't need to buy a new seat.

I use the Corbin rider’s seat (sans Smuggler). I am just starting to break it in and it’s already a winner. It is supportive, wider without inhibiting movement, and nice looking. I have only used it for a maximum stretch of three hours, but have yet to experience discomfort in the nethers. It was so good that I bought one for my Guzzi...

I too have a Corbin, and I rate the std RS seat as great! However if you want a nice seat which is worse than an anal probe get the nice brown pleated seat from the R Nine T Scrambler. As I reported to the service manager of my dealership it reminded me of being introduced to Kevin Spacy at a party. He said many others said the same in a less colourful way.

I'm looking at seat options for my RS. I've had both Sargent and Corbin product on motorcycles I've owned, and there are some applications I thought were superior on one VS the other, and I'm curious if in the case of the RS it might fall to Corbin. Their info on the seat they build for the RS claims a seat height of "about" 32"... In my own case a taller seat would assist in unfolding my legs to a more comfortable bend I'm sure. Can you say this has been the case for you? Also when considering Corbin/Sargent choice the Sargent offering has a sorted out under seat stowage for tools, doc, etc. no mentions in that regard for Corbin. How is that resolved on the seat you fitted? The Website shows a beautiful single piece seat does it fit snugly as advertised and unlatch detach and reattach accurately? I had a Corbin on my R1200R that was a demon to get fitted to do so. Your insights are appreciated
Thanks

I have a Corbin I fine it comfortable once it was broken in, the ride home from corbin is about 350 miles. That being said it a real benefit to be able to go to Corbin shop. 20190401_104400.jpg - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte)20190426_091607.jpg - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte)20180513_072911 (3).jpg - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte)
