    Corbin Dual Tour Seat on Rocket 3 GT?

    Believe it or not, Corbin has already been in touch with me assuring me that it takes around 1,500 miles +/- to begin to breaking in. I told them what others have said here that it doesn't matter how long you ride on it, it won't soften up. Corbin's reply was to send it back and that they would...

    Corbin Dual Tour Seat on Rocket 3 GT?

    So... it stopped raining and I was excited to see what my $1,600 USD spent at Corbin would get me... WHAT A TREMENDOUS DISAPPOINTMENT!!!! I feel ripped off... stolen from... betrayed. What a horrible waste of money this seat is. It feels like I am riding on a leather-covered cinder block. With...

    Corbin Dual Tour Seat on Rocket 3 GT?

    Well, it's pouring down rain today, so it's a good time to work on the bike a bit. I just received my Corbin seat today and I was very anxious to get it on the bike. I can tell you this, I'll NEVER buy another one from Corbin. The quality is unbelievably piss-poor. It looks like a project that a...

    A few more badly taken pictures. And there's no way I can take a picture of that tank without getting a reflection of my ugly self in it...

    Thanks, there's a link to my Google Drive folder on page 1, post #6 that shows the "not so good" pictures that I took this past Saturday while at the showroom. I pickup the bike tomorrow. Once I get it home, I snap a few better pics and post them here.

    I wondered the same thing, but I never watch where I'm going anyway. Oh well, dark face shield, dark glasses, and keep my head up.

    Sadly no. Said yes just yesterday, but only took it around the parking lot. Rain/Snow and 30-something degrees was not conducive to a good ride, but I've owned several bikes in my years and I could tell I was going to enjoy this one as well. I pick up on Tuesday... in the cold... using a...

    Like any other old guy with technology, I ain't da greatest photographer in the world. And the weather wasn't very nice yesterday, so you get the "showroom" version of the bike. I'll be picking it up this Tuesday when I trailer it home. Hey, it's wintertime in Pennsylvania. So if I did things...

    Actually, what impressed me most was the salesman. He not only knew the bike well, he owned one. And the bike before that was another Rocket 3. And the other 8 bikes in his garage are also Triumphs. And his wife rides too... beside him, not behind him. He truly loves his job and this bike. So...

    Been riding since I was 12 years old. Mostly Hondas and Harleys. I'm 64 now, but I figured I'd come over to the dark side and see why my brother liked Triumphs so much. And besides, the Chrome Edition reminds me all that chrome on my Harley. I know that'll get you guys going!
