which is "more" comfortable. I have used the stock seat and the corbin. Of course the corbin is more comfortable, but I have never used the Buell solo seat. There are some on Ebay right now and was wondering what it was like...thanks in advance.

I have the Buell Pro Series seat on my S1, and it was an improvement over the stocker. I had picked up a used Corbin, but never got around to trying it before swapping it for more parts.

I have the stock S1W "euro" solo seat on my bike. It's....personal. It isn't *un*comfortable specifically, but if you take the seat off and look at the tail section fiberglass you can see where it flips up on each side under the seat, then turns and goes down where you can see it with the seat installed. I can feel those upsweeps through the euro seat, and I'm not a real heavy guy.

If I could find a Corbin....

I rode on a select seat for a while and it is a lot more comfortable than the stocker.
I'm 5'10" and have about 33" inseam, I found the seat a little tall for my comfort.

I've been very happy with the stock seat I cut the front down on and scooped out towards the back.

Corbins have always seemed a bit firm for my taste.

The corbins I have for my S2 (one solo, one 2-up) are firm...but the cup is shaped right for my bony backside so I love 'em.

Corbin is so much better than the stocker!
