I just installed my Corbin Gambler...I love it. Looks great, and the fit/finish is fantastic. Corbins are hard for some people, but I like it (this is my 4th Corbin and I swear by them).

I have the H-D "stripper" and love the look and it is very comfortable for me. I wouldn't recommend it for 2-ups unless she is a "spinner" type chick (ie; under 100lbs and a can narrower than 6") because the pillion is only 6.5" wide. [sm=smiley2.gif]

Love that STripper....I'm going to get one for my solo runs. I think they look better than actual solo seats on the SG. What do you think of the pattern ones...like AXE etc.? Too much? I kind of like them.

I am with jdag and Bryan and have really liked Corbin for fit and quality. I am not big, but at 6'1' I have done well by them. As mentioned in another post, I would look at the Sundowner as my next choice, as BountyHunter said it is wide and deep and if I remember he also has some height.... Good Luck.

I'm not fond of the patterns for the H-D seats. I prefer the plain look. But too each their own I guess...

Thinking on the lines of a tallboy for myself, being as i'm 6ft and 3inchs but can't get a real answer on it fitting my flstc, at least the older model like mine...

everyone has an opinion but finding the right seat to fit your scoot, your legs and the shape of your *** is tough.
