| Put on a new Corbin seat on my 13 VV. The stock seat was fine, not a all day ride seat but I could ride 500 miles before I got saddle sore. I lost 35 lbs, now I have bony butt according to the doctors. The shape and design of the stock seat put my weight on my tail bone, when I reached my feet to shift or brake I was in serious pain. I am happy to say this new seat is leaning me forward and putting my weight on my thighs and not on my tailbone, taking away most the discomfort. I have a 44 inseam and have never had to stretch out to put my feet down at a stop, I do now. Wider seat and a taller seat. I have only put 150 miles on the seat, but at this point I am satisfied. Just sayin |

Broomfield, CO | Good feedback on the Corbin. I have a 13 VV as well and my tailbone is killing me after about 100 miles. I've been looking at an Air Hawk seat cushion as a lower cost option to a new seat, any suggestions from the rest of you guys? Love everything about my VV except for the seat! |

| I used the airhawk seat cushion until the Corbin came in. I does work, but it does not leave room for the boys. Uncomfortable in that area. |

Virginia Beach, VA United States | The wife and I have decided to go with Corbin. We had a Corbin on our 05 Roadie and 07 Wing and loved it. I am waiting hear back from Corbin before I order the seat. I want 2 mods done. First is to remove the rear lip so that the ridge stops hitting the wife's tail bone. Second is to have the driver's area pushed forward 2 inches to provide a little more space for the fender bunny. |

Belding Michigan | I have an 08 with a Corbin and I am a big guy too it is the best for me as the seat is firm but the same firm in the evening as it is in the morning. I hated sitting on the frame of the seat due to my weight after a couple of hours of riding. Arch |

Katy, TX United States | I used an Airhawk 2 seat cushion. They made a spot for the boys. I used one on my 03 Honda ST1300 until I traded it in for my 13 VV. I still have the Airhawk 2, PM me Speterson1 if you want it, just pay for shipping.

Louisburg, KS United States | Was thinking about an airhawk as well after trying my buddies. After looking how his attaches though I'm not sure how to attach to the vision. How are you all attaching them? |
