Your not the first one I've heard say that about them. I guess a work around could have been to have your friend order one for you but you seem to have gotten a better fix anyway.
 
Had one on my Magna. Kept me in the bike which was too short for me. Sold the bike. Have the seat and a back rest for sale. Usually they lower the seat height. Horse saddle hard is right but easy to move around in. Beautifully crafted with premium leathers and correct fit. I like the look of my R3 with two up and backrest look.
The bike is fitting better every time I ride it.
Next fit is a new front tire and thennnnn... The Dark Side .
 
Been riding a Corbin solo seat on my 97 Valkyrie for the last 15 years. I never once thought about trying a different seat.
 
Let us look at your bikes! There are quite a few Valkie/Rocket owners in this group. Both best in class. SmothaCruiser & MuscleCruiser
.
 
Got one on my R3T and on my Intruder, both get better with miles, and very much an improvement over stock. Could they themselves be improved? Possibly, but without a seat maven observing my sitting position, that is to say, bespoke service, I don't know what can be done.
 
I put one on my K1200GT, and did 4000 miles in 14 days, huge improvement over stock, it didn't start to feel too hard til day 11 or 12.
 
I have a Corbin FastGun on my R3R and so far love it. Way better than stock and it lowered me about 1-1/2 inches which I wanted. I feel like I am sitting in the saddle not on the saddle. That being said I have not had more than 3 hours at a time in it. The real test will be distance but I don't expect different results.
 
I love mine, I can ride all day with usual pit stops to fill and empty tanks, but as I have aged my butt muscles have too and after a few days riding the butt muscles turn to mush, need to do more Cycling to tone them up again
