If you like a corbin.

I had real quality problems with a Corbin and would never consider again.

That's a great price for a great seat.

I've used Corbin for years, it would take a LOT to convince me to use anything else.

Probably not going to find a better price on a used Corbin seat in good shape.

I just came back from Hollister/Corbin. This is our 4th Harley / 100K+ miles on Corbins. All of ours were built to our bodies at Hollister. One thing about Corbins that are Used - will they fit You? If its a good fit, you will love it - if it does not fit - well, thats another story.
We spent 7 hours fitting our saddle. Most people do not have this advantage. I have read stories of saddles bought on line - new and used. Opinions are all over the Map. Iam short rider. Harder to fit a saddle - but after it fits - its a joy to ride.
Good luck with your Corbin

I Just copied this from the Corbin (FAQ) In buying a used Corbin - something to tak into consideration / Will the New owner make a new impression???


"In addition, Corbin's foam has a memory feature. After a break-in period of approximately 1500-2000 miles, the saddle will actually take on the shape of the rider which provides even better weight dispersion and custom fitted comfort."

I've bought used Corbins...

The break-in is a non-issue... I have a theory, but I don't want to get everyone "up in arms".

Worst case, reBay it if you don't like it, shouldn't be hard to get your money back.
