Seat modification ideas?

[jetjr]

Driver seat is perfect, but the passenger seat causes soreness to the tailbone area for the passenger. Seems to be tilted too far foward when using the Can Am backrest. Any ideas or modifications that have worked for anybody?

If you want to keep the stock seat talk to a local apulstry shop and see if they can rework the shape of the rear of the seat. If you want to change the seat look into the corbin or Rusell they have both gotten good reviews. If you deside to go with the corbin though have them thicken the front of the rear saddle.

Just installed my heated Corbin seats . What a great comfortable seat. Took the wife for a ride and she thought it was much better than stock but with the Corbin backrest it tended to tilt her forward. I under stand when ordering Corbin seats you can have them build up the front part of passengers seat to get rid of that problem. Did'nt find out about that until reading this forum .:chat:

i was all set to get corbin seats but i think it may prevent my a$$ from sliding side to side when i turn.

any corbin owner wanna give me an input on that please?
i am wondering by corbin seat holding your a$$ in a pocket or a concave seat, i may be giving up a little bit of ability to shift my weight for comfort.

Hope that seat likes alcohol more than your customers!

It's easier to shift your butt on the Corbin than on the stock seat. You just slide instead of the "up and over" required on the sticky stock.

My wife and I rode to Hollister, CA to have ours built. One day service by appointment. tat2r got his fixed after looking at our pics of seat.. I will include the pics here for anyone interested. tat2r can help you with how he worked it out with Corbin.
