For total touring support, we offer several styles of removable backrest that work in the Classic Solo. The Ovalbac® model backrest shown here is our model #02-S and provides the best blend of good looks and sculpted support. Ovalbac® models provide good support without trapping heat against your body... they also make a great hand hold while moving your bike around the garage. Simple to install, just slide the backrest shaft into the saddle and secure with the included setscrew. Backrest angle is adjustable to provide a tailored fit to your posture and adjustment is done without removing the backrest from the seat.
Corbin's rear seat easily bolts up along with the Corbin solo and keeps a sleek, vintage look with excellent capabilities for passengers. We build this model to look sly, but use our high density Comfort Cell® foam for a firm supportive ride. Our pillion is ergonomically engineered for better weight dispersion and support. Naturally it is built to match your Classic Solo for a totally integrated look.
Both saddles and backrest are richly tailored with genuine leather seating panels and built with Corbin's Comfort Cell® foam. Our exclusive foam material is almost twice as firm as the stock foam to give you support that lasts and doesn't compress down over time. This "Closed Cell" foam will feel firm at first, but over the miles you will notice it doesn't compress down like the stock foam and continues to provide resilience for the long haul. Additionally, it will break in over time to provide a personalized fit to your posture.
Choose from a wide range of leather and decorating options (all included) for your new seat. Leather will provide a nice perch that breathes with your body and will break in along with the foam shape for a personalized fit. For an added bit of a nostalgic touch, specify Chrome Studs on your order like the model shown here (also at no additional charge). Corbin's backrest system works with or without a pillion saddle in place. Corbin pillion seats work with your VTX sissy bar if equipped.
If you prefer a totally solo look, you can run the Corbin Classic Solo seat without a passenger pillion. This looks very nice on the VTX models showing off that flashy Tail Dragger style fender. Corbin's backrest is supported internally, so there are no unsightly brackets to clutter up the clean look of your bike. To keep things looking clean, chrome button head screws (not included) into the hole in your fender is a simple solution. Since the saddles install easily, you can simply convert your bike from this solo look to dual with just a few screws and a few minutes of your time.
If you opt for one of the OvalbacŪ series backrests as shown here (model #02-S), you can further customize the look of you bike with rear finishing plate options. Made of ABS, our standard model has a leather look to it, but you can also choose a Carbon-Fiber look, Aluminum look or primer if you want to custom paint one. For just a little extra, we can provide a finishing plate prepainted to coordinate with your stock Honda paint job or a new Chromed steel model as shown. Please note, chrome back plates are only available for the model #02-S.
Simple to install, passenger pillion mounts directly to the Corbin Classic Solo seat with all hardware included. The solo uses two brackets similar to your stock seat to mount directly to the frame locations originally used. You will reuse the stock bolts for this. To clean things up a bit, we offer a chromed billet thumbscrew in the proper thread (6mm) to fit your rear fender as shown. This looks very clean and can be installed or removed without tools. These thumbscrews can be used in a variety of applications wherever you want a dressier finish.
Be sure to care for your leather saddle with a quality conditioner like our Saddle Cream. With proper care, your seat will age gracefully developing a unique character and will be your riding buddy for years. Leather conditioner will help it to remain water resistant and supple over time. Beware not to use any cleaners or conditioners that are petroleum based or contain kerosene as this may damage the leather cover over time!
This saddle cover has been updated to use our new backrest hardware cover with the sliding door as shown here. To install the backrest, just slide the cover over to the side. When the backrest is not needed, just slide it closed. It doesn't get easier than that! Click image for details.
UNIQUE TECHNOLOGY: The design and manufacture of Corbin products is so unique that Mike Corbin himself holds more than 60 United States Patents! From the process itself to new innovations like the Corbin Glovebox, you can count on highly functional and unique products that work. Corbin products are manufactured under one or more of the following US Patents: 6,848,156 B2; 6,729,516 B2; D 489,540S; 6,655,740 B1; 6,422,648 B1; 5,544,937; 5,608,957; 4,953,911; D545,073S & 6,971,714 B1. | |
FIBERTECH™ BASEPAN: A purpose built, hybrid material that provides a firm foundation to support the carefully designed ergonomics of the Corbin saddle. Provides a precision fit to every arc and contour of the machine and rides on rubber bumpers to protect your paint. We always design our basepans as flat as possible so bumps or odd shapes don't telegraph through the foam to your body. Click on the button at left to learn more... | |
COMFORT CELL® FOAM: The heart of the Corbin saddle! Our exclusive, purpose built foam material, called Comfort Cell, was created to provide a firm, resilient ride that doesn't break down. This means it will support you for long days on the road. Over time, Comfort Cell will break in to provide a personalized fit to your posture and even greater comfort! For the complete story just click the button. | |
ERGONOMIC SHAPING: A major part of the design criteria of the Corbin saddle is the Ergonomic shape. This means the saddle's foam shape is designed to emulate the curves of the human body. This provides more square inches of body contact and helps to eliminate hot spots. This shaping also neutralizes the seating platform to help curb sliding in the saddle which reduces fatigue. In a nutshell... more comfort for a longer ride! Just click the button at left for an animation that shows how it works. | |
PATENTED MANUFACTURING TECHNOLOGY: Always an innovator, Mike Corbin invented Integrated Molding technology which is now the process by which all Corbin saddles are made. This process allows extremely tight tolerances and creates a chemical bond between the foam and base material. To see what this is all about, just click the button for More Info | |
GENUINE LEATHER: We use leather in all panels of the seat that contact your body. This provides a luxurious ride that breathes with your body. Leather will also break in along with the foam shape to support the personalized fit. Available in a wide range of textures and styles to suit your taste. For more information about leather seating just click away. | |
CORBIN BACKREST SYSTEM: The first and most versatile removable backrest system available for motorcycles! Corbin's backrests provide added vertical back support and long range comfort.
