Did they give you an estimated ship date when you ordered?

There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

They are about 4 weeks out, could be 3 if i get lucky.. was the estimate. Amazon has ruined my ability to wait.:yikes:

Its shown on the rally with the rear support, poli has a rally as well. What you put on the rear support, seat , bag etc should make no difference. In this case i think 'solo' is used to note its not a dual passager seat. (King, Queen seat)

Corbin seat came today! It is just awsome, quality fit finish is perfect. Yes pictures are coming.
Poli how did you manage to get that bolt up and tightened into the bracket? So far it been like trying to screw in a ceiling light bulb with 1 big toe! :banghead::banghead:
Poli
"GOT IT. Installation was about 20 minutes (15 with what I know now). A bracket at the front with 1 bolt thru a hole already there.

Yeah, if I remember correctly I had to do the rear bolt first and then the front. I liked the original handlebar / seat relation position so since the Corbin seat is a couple of inches thicker I ended up installing some Rox risers to raise the handlebars. Everything feels good now. Hope you enjoy the Corbin.

Can you tell me what seat color you selected? Is it the Black Natural Leather or Smoke Bomber Jacket?

Black Natural Leather. I PM'd you my entire order selections.
If you do get one, be sure and keep that front bracket bolt loose till you get the rear screw in (CSOldGrayDog and I found out the hard way).
Poli, will you send me the order also? I like it!

That does look like a very comfortable seat for a long ride. Do Corbin seats wear well and last a long time? I’m not to familiar with them. I to hope they come out with a passenger seat sometime in the future.

Have one on a '98 Moto Guzzi. Still looks good except for the couple of real small cuts in it from a 60 mph wreck. DEFINITELY looks good for 22 years old and survived a crash (rest of bike and my ATGATT didn't fair so well).

I still have the Corbin seat from the wrecked BMW shown in my avitar. The seat was still fine; the rest of the bike not so much. Keep the leather treated with Lexol or something similar and it will outlast the bike.
Hi Poli:
I really like the options you chose for your Corbin seat. Looks classy and understated and was hoping you would share the order details.
Thanks,
Tardy

I have a Ryker Rally, and I did not have an empty hole at the front seat pan,(like instructions indicated) looked like it was used by the sensor connection for the passenger footrests. So, I didn't attach the bracket at the front base, I just removed the speed nut and clip from the right rear of the seat pan and attached the seat with the one bolt from underneath at the rear of the seat. The seat has a very tight fit, and don't think it is going anywhere. By the way I love the fit and feel of this Corbin seat. I know they are firm, but I have been a long time user of Corbin seats.
