I know everone says put miles on your Corbin and it will eventually break in. Wouldnt the same hold true for the stock seat? Wont the stock seat start conforming the more you ride it.

It is not true for either! The Corbin that Starts out hard will be hard with a 250 pound rider a year later! The softer Seat that thay can make takes about 6 months! Break in cannot change the shape of the seat base!

Thanks Jason for working to get us a deal on the Dampers.
Corbin: I had one on my Busa and just installed one on my 2002 ZX12 and it is like night and day for me.

what did u not like about ur corbin?
For the type of riding I do, I didn't like the seat. Sold it to Turboblew, who loves it. The one I had was modified with the "nose job" as they called it. Made me slide back to the rear of the seat all the time. Since I mostly dragrace, I just took my factory deat and modded it. Corbin was hard as a mo fo, anyway!!

I love my Corbin seat. I had a problem with a Powercommander that turned out to be cause by a wire pinch and not a product problem and they still sent me a new one free of charge so I have nothing but good things to say about both products.
I guess I'm the minority here.

After three (3) times, I like mine and told them the first time how I wanted it, but they were Waaaay to arrogrant to listen! "Only" took two (2) times to get my wife's seat right! They "CAN" Make excellent seats if and when they want! My thought is that they are making too much money to care anymore!!

Part of being lucky is having a Corbin store here in Daytona, and the manager is a BIG Kawasaki fan. When I went there to ask a question about my seat the manager saw it was a ZX-12 and had me pull it into the shop so "he could have a look at it". Still haven't needed to take advantage of them being local, but it's still nice.
My seat is good for me, guess I'm a hard ass after all Mr. Hill.

I hate my Corbin, I looked at it closely and the Carbon fiber pattern is gone where I sit. So not is it only uncomfortable it is looking bad also. I do like the shape but that is all.
Also I don't see a problem with a guy trying to get a freebee organizing a group buy. We all benefit. This isn't someone making their living off this stuff. Fish of all people should understand the concept of a good deal after that tire fiasco. The pay per post stuff should be for guys making money off stuff not a one time freebee. Hell they might just be buying from a sponser anyway.
