Opinions??

Here are two scenarios for seat comfort. Diamond R Acc's passenger armrest plus Utopia's driver backrest OR Corbin seat with passenger armrest & driver backrest. I would appreciate all the input I could get along with your stories. Thanks

I originally had the stock seat with Utopia on my 2010 RTS. Could not deal with the stock seat so I changed that out to a Corbin with Corbin Backrest. I have now had two Corbins & Backrest set up. You either like Corbins or you don't. I have almost 50,000 miles on Corbins.

Others will chime in on other brands I am sure. Have not had any experience with armrests.

If you decide on Corbin, tell them you don't want the screws in the side of the arm rests. I spent 400. on arm rests that had stainless steel screws showing in the side of the arm rests. I called Corbin and asked them what's up with the screws in the sides of the arm rests. There reply was there are accessories coming in the distant future for the arm rests. How ugly they look. I sent them back but I was told they were custom made so no money in return. Good Luck on your seating decisions.

Each to their own on this one. I personally had Corbin seat, backrest, passenger armrests, etc. I loved it. In fact I tried ordering one for my soon to be 2013 RT-S and they told me I had to wait to see if there is any difference in the 13's as compared to the 12's.

The Corbin armrests presnted two problems to me.
1. They were a bit too far back for comfort.
2. They didn't swing out of the way for easy seating.

The Diamond R answered both of these objections in spades.

:agree: :2thumbs:

I've had the Corbin set-up on both my RS and now my RTS. Top notch.:thumbup:The gas door blends in with the seat, the arm rest don't look like an add on and pose no challange getting on or of the bike.
