My wife if uncomfortable on the stock for anything more than an hour. How is the Corbin for comfort and touring? I have seen that you can put the Ventura bags with the Corbin anything else I should know?

from what i hear, the corbin has a lip that keeps the passenger from sliding forward, that's gotta count towards comfortability!

We have the corbin gunfighter seat (NOT gunfighter and lady) on our M2. On the stock seat, I always felt like I was going off the back of the bike and the seat was uncomfortable. After adding the Corbin seat and Ventura Rack we've done day-long trips on the M2. We did have a little issue around how the Corbin seat fit the M2. After a little re-shaping, all is well.

Does anyone have or know where I can get an inexpensive Corbin? Or is it best to buy new? If new, who has the best deals or go factory direct?

The "Buell Color Matched Custom" seat is pretty decent, ( see my profile ) You may find one on E-bay.

Keep an eye on the Corbin web site. Last winter they reduced their Buell seat prices to $229.

I have the Gun Fighter and Lady on my M2 and S3T and like them both. I don't a passenger though.

I see Corbin fairly regular in the last year on ebay. Typical price is $85 to $125.

I got mine (GF/lady with backrest) from ebay for $200. I was impatient.

I like the seat better for anything longer than just around the neighborhood. But for quick trips, it does seem hard. So i'm changing mine back and forth a lot. Only takes one minute, so why not? Time it takes for the engine to get loose, I choose which seat.
