Generously sculpted rider seating maximized for people that do most of their touring solo. Designed specially to fit the 2009+ Electra-Glide, Road Glide and Street Glide models.
Wide, sculpted rider seating position offers a bit more room than on the Dual Touring seat model by moving the bucket back, using some of the passenger area (that's why we call it a Solo Tour). We've also narrowed down the passenger area slightly for a cleaner look. You'll find a measurement comparison of the Solo Tour vs Dual Tour above.
There's still plenty of passenger seating area for those times when you are two-up so this model is still very versatile. Ergonomic shaping in both platforms eliminates pressure points and give long lasting support that will keep you in the saddle all day.
Corbin's rigid fibertech basepan provides a perfect fit and is built low to hug the frame. This allowed us to create a foam shape that keeps you in the sweet spot which provides a better center of gravity and more positive feeling of control. Deep, supportive bucket design gives over five inches of vertical support (15" with backrest installed). All of this adds up to a very relaxed posture and comfortable ride so you'll be able to go out and put serious miles under the tires.
Inside, our exclusive Comfort Cell foam provides firm support that stays resilient indefinitely. We cast this special
Closed Cell material nearly twice as firm as the stock foam to support your body weight. Soft foam allows your body to fall through it the longer you sit on it... once compressed, soft foam offers no resilience and you start to experience discomfort. That's why we always say "firm is a good thing!"
Rider's seating area is designed to work with an optional Corbin backrest for added comfort and support. Fully adjustable to fit a wide variety of statures and riding postures. Internal hardware keeps a clean look and allows for adjustment of the backrest fore - aft as well as the standard angle adjustment. Spring loaded fold down feature makes it easier to mount the bike. Works with a variety of Corbin backrest models. We recommend model #02-SB (shown) for a very good blend of form and function.
Passenger seating area works with virtually any configuration on the HD baggers. Use it with your Electra-Glide's Tour-Pak, with the HD detachable sissy bar system or with another Corbin removable backrest in the rear. Naturally the Corbin backrest offers an angle adjustment for tailored fit to your passenger's profile. Simple installation allows you to use a single backrest transferred front to rear as needed or order two backrests for full time use.
When using a sissy bar or Tour Pak, we offer coordinated backrest pads to match your Corbin system. On the Tour Pak above we show our trunk armrest that provides maximum passenger support. Sculpted design gives a large contact patch and excellent support with integrated armrests. For the detachable sissy bar, we offer a contoured touring quality backrest pad that bolts up just like the stock pad and also a new passenger armrest option. All Corbin components are contructed of the same high quality materials as the saddle for good support and integrated looks.
All components include genuine leather seating inserts for a truly luxurious ride. For a very classy and subtle touch we recommend our standard natural grain leather seating with coordinating vinyl sides. We prefer leather seating because it is durable, will breathe with your body and adapt with the foam shape as it breaks in. Vinyl side panels help to support the foam shape and keep the cover looking nice longer. A wide variety of color and texture options are available by special order at no additional charge. Includes Winged Wheel logo in the rider's back panel and tasteful flame stitch in choice of thread colors.
Solo Touring saddle offers the option of electric seat heaters for an added bit of luxury. Wiring easily into your stock HD fusebox, the Corbin seat heaters are controlled via a conveniently located switch along the rider seating position on the left side. Two heat settings are available and are maintained automatically by integrated controller. You just wire in the Corbin supplied pigtail and enjoy the warmth on those chilly morning rides. Although there is only ONE switch on this seat, both seating plaforms are indeed heated.
Simple installation uses a tongue in the front and a single bolt into your fender at the rear. For tool free installation and a very clean look we offer a chromed billet thumbscrew for this location (see image above). If you opt for electric heat, we include a wiring pigtail that integrates with the oem fuse box.
Here's something new... Want to add a bit of convenient storage without installing a trunk? Corbin's glovebox is an excellent solution for all your quick-access stuff. Simply replace the finishing plate on the #02-SB Ovalbac or #297-SB backrest and you've just added four liters of locking storage capacity. It's plenty for a couple bottles of water, cell phone, spare gloves, maps and other incidentals. Constructed of durable ABS plastic and available plain or prepainted black.
