Just rode up to Hollister this past weekend to Corbin and had a dual tour made for my 14 Road King. Test rode the seat a couple of times as we made minor changes to it before it got covered. I wanted the back part of the riders portion more vertical for better lower back support. We added an inch then trimed a little bit off. The passenger area we added some to each side to make it 15" wide. Then it got covered in brown bomber leather in a diamond stich pattern. Also had studs. Seat feels great and its not even broke in yet. They say it takes a thousand or more miles for the seat to form to you. I got about 600 on it. I can tell it seems to be forming to me. Absolutely beautiful seat and fine craftsmanship. Totally changed the appearance of my bike. I think its going to be a great seat.

I have one that I didn't think was bad, my wife though thinks it's to hard and likes my buddies mustang seat better. She mostly only likes to do short day trips though so that may be influencing her to the softer foam.

Mine is in the classifieds now.

gahendo,
passenger complaining Corbin seat is hard has been a ongoing complaint as far as I can tell
and seems to be worse with lighter weight passengers. From what I understand this is do to the harder foam and pressure points that with a heavier passenger would compress over time and allow more padding to support more surface area. This break in by the heavier passenger will in time result in a more comfortable seat. This doesn't seem to happen with lighter passengers or those that don't ride often.
