Are you on the R seat or the GT seat? The R seat is about 1" higher than the GT. (See image below of the R seat's outline superimposed over the GT seat.)

Corbin's comparison tool shows it being a bit higher than the GT seat--so about the same height as the R seat, but still as far back as the GT seat (and with better back support).
Good point. I’m on the GT seat though unfortunately as far as that goes. It’s plenty comfortable enough for me for shorter rides and my Indian is better configured for longer rides anyways. I still like how Corbin’s look though and they are super comfortable once broken in.
 
Few months ago, I did a good 5+ hr ride with the stock gt seat, I hurt for days afterwards… got my Corbin 2 weeks ago, did a 11 hr outing, 7 hrs in the seat, felt great… still had to get off the bike every few hours, but that’s fine. My seating area is leather, rest is a combo of different vinyls basically. As mentioned, the seat fit fine, and putting the trim on wasn’t hard, I just took my time. This is my 5th Corbin, firm, but supportive, love these seats 👍

Thank you for an informative response.
 
Thanks guys, just ordered. Natural black leather seat, red leather welt, gray stitching, flat black sides and tail.
 
Here's my Corbin Gunfighter. Matte Black sides & tail, Smoke Bomber Jacket leather seat, Medium Silver stitching, Dark Brushed Aluminum welt. Upholstery is excellent, seat pan not so much ... spent many hours grinding down the rubber feet to get it to sort-of fit but I'm still left with a bit of a gap by the tank. Seat is very firm, I hope it breaks in! BTW I did not transfer the trim from my old seat (so I can swap them easily). If you buy them like I did the trim part numbers you need are T2310543 (rubber trim), T2309846 (RH aluminum finisher) and T2309847 (LH aluminum finisher).

Great looking seat looks hardcore with the bomber jacket leather .I have had Corbin’s on 4 bikes they are well made but firm. As pointed out above seat pan is not top shelf. Happy motoring .
