I have a Corbin Young Guns like the one at the top of the page in the NewR3 ad. It's very uncomfortable for the passenger and I was having to switch out the seats to either the stock or gell seats when the wife wanted to ride. I'm most comfortable on the Corbin since it's firm and broken in so neither of us was as comfortable as we could be.
Problem solved when I got her a Butty Buddy, sounds goofy but it works great. She loves the added size and height, she is comfortable and can see over my head where we're going. I like it because I can take it off easily and have the seat I like and that looks best at any time home or away.

Corbin is a hell of a lot better than stock.

But the Russel is reported to be the best. You are required to pay for the best.

I have a Corbin Dual Tour. It's a nice seat with a big rider seat.

But the best rated seat on these forums over the years is the Russell.

I also have the Corbin duel touring. Wifey likes the passenger seat, pretty good sized

I carved the front seat lower and just made a closed cell foam pad covered in black for the rear , it fits over the standard minuscule seat and is held in place by the built in sides that squeeze between the saddlebags on each side total cost $ 110 and a smile on my wife's face every time she rides on it .

I had upgraded to the Triumph Dual Tour with the rider backrest. A must for long rides. I then sent it out to Rick Mayer for a custom fit and recover. Absolutely love it. Completed 2 Iron Butt rides with no complaints. Wife appreciates the added support.




Just tried looking up the Rick Mayer website and it appears that the domain registration has expired. hmmm....doesn't sound good.

That Rick Mayer custom saddle looks great!

I guess the Russell DayLong is one of the best saddles out there.

I've had at least two stock seats customized locally, with varying results.

The Russell or Rick Mayer will be my next one.

Dragger is that seating surface actually a weave and breathable, or just a good looking stamped print? Sure does look comfy.
I was taking a large box to the UPS drop off and it was positioned exactly where I could lean back against it, made me wish I had a backrest.
