I had the solo seat, passenger pillion, rider backrest and sissy bar pad. The passenger pillion did not appear to slant to me. Here are some pictures on my 2016 CVO Street Glide. I just sold this set up to another member because I'm trading the bike in.

I concur. I also have the Corbin Classic solo with the matching passenger pillion. The passenger pillion is level, no slant that I can see. If it did have a slant, my wife would have let me know for sure.

Has Corbin changed the seats construction since this thread was started in 2018??????
Because we are all different, what is a heavenly fit for one person can be misery for another.

I’ve a Corbin Close solo & pillion for my 04. It’s sure pretty, but that’s about all it has going for it. It’s seat pocket isn’t close, it’s further aft than stock. The seat foam is brick hard. It’s remarkably crude and poorly made. But again, it sure is pretty on the bike.

Corbin seats come from two different locations. I’ve long heard one is far better than the other.

wouldn't make any difference. yes, corbin has 2 locations, but the location in florida is only a showroom. it is not zoned for mfg, so any seat you get from fl. came from hollister anyway.
