I just picked up my Corbin Stinger seat yesterday from Irving upholsterer.
Some of you wanted a report so here is with photos.
I wanted him to modify seat to stop me from sliding down toward tank. He did this by building up padding in front of crotch area so i would stay centered in the "bucket".
I also had him re-cover with black ostrich faux.
I also brought him a sheepskin backrest cover left over from a Mustang backrest on my previous bike. It was way too wide for the Corbin backrest so he cut cover down for a snug fit.
I was going to have him add a gel pad for more cushioning but, at last minute, decided against this as gel pads retain a lot of heat after sitting in sun. They were originally used to cut down some of the vibration from the big V-Twin engines. Valks do not have this problem.
His quote with the gel pad was $275.
Without the gel pad, I paid $200. He did not charge extra for taxes.
I am VERY pleased with Paul's work.
