Corbin's Dual Touring Saddle accepts two removable rider's backrests. Each backrest is fully adjustable for a tailored fit to your posture. In the front we have engineered the backrest to fold down to make it easier to mount the bike. This special hardware (internal to the saddle) also allows the backrest position fore and aft to be adjusted to your profile. Once the backrest is installed, both of these adjustments can be performed without removing the saddle from the motorcycle.
Naturally, you can use a single Corbin backrest that transfers front to back as needed or get two backrests for full time use. Installation of the backrest is easy enough to make this possible at a moments notice. Simply slide the backrest shaft into the built in hardware and secure it in place with the provided set screw. Adjust the backrest to the desired angle and you're back on the road in total comfort.
For the ultimate in luxury, we offer electric seat heaters in our Dual Touring saddle design. A single switch controls the heat for both the rider and passenger positions. The switch is conveniently located along the left side of the saddle so you can reach it without taking your hand off the throttle. The two position switch allows you to select a heat level depending on conditions. The level of heat is controlled automatically by a thermostat built into the control unit. This setup is very simple to install into your VTX wiring. Dual Touring seat is also available without heater units built in.
This saddle also accepts our chrome "V-rail" for an added nostalgic touch (but not if you are using the Honda sissy bar setup). Show quality chrome plating provides a nice touch of class. V-rail mounts directly to the Corbin saddle for simple installation. Naturally, we use genuine leather in all of our seat models to provide a luxurious ride that breathes with your body. A wide range of leather options are available for a custom look to suit your taste. We also include our tasteful "Tuck & Roll" stitch pattern and the option of chrome studs if desired (please specify). Leather will break in along with your foam shape to give you a personalized fit and will age gracefully with proper care. Take good care of your leather seat with a quality conditioner like Corbin's Saddle Cream.
If you already have your VTX setup for touring with the Honda sissy bar / luggage rack setup, our Dual Touring Saddle will work with it just fine. As mentioned before, our chrome v-rail will not work on the seat with this configuration. Sorry, but at this time we do not make a coordinating sissy bar pad for the Honda sissy bar. Our saddle was engineered to allow proper seat placement for your copilot while using the Honda rack or the adjustable Corbin backrest.
Speaking of Corbin backrests, our new Ovalbac series (model #02-S shown) is the hottest thing available for your VTX. Not only does the Oval shape make a great hand hold for your passenger, but they don't trap heat against your body like solid models do. Of course we sculpt them to provide contoured support for your back that doesn't create a pressure point on your spine. We've even made the backing plates removable to add a range of customizing options (see listings below). We even offer a painted model that coordinates to your factory paint scheme.
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. | |
