Corbin seat
05/01/09 4:33 PM

Does anybody besides Corbin make a seat with a passenger backrest? I have one on my GPZ. My wife loves it, I don't. (Kinda hard) I need to get a seat to make the wife happy. Any ideas?

Sharkey,

A buddy of mine bought one for his busa from this place, www.tobinseats.com, it is very comfy and looks good. I am thinking of getting one these also.

It feels nice out.........I think I'll leave it out.

Thanks for the input. I've e-mailed them. I'll post the response information.

Tobin Mfg. says they do not make a passenger backrest. They use the plastic pan which comes with the bike which is not strong enough to withstand the force. They said Corbin uses a fibreglass pan which will hold up to the force. This is why you don't send Corbin the old seat when ordering a new one.
Apparently Corbin is the only fabrcator to offer a passenger backrest on a sport bike. So I guess I'll be getting a Corbin.
