Sometimes if you call Corbin they have a seat that they made for someone and they didn't take it or like it.

Might have to call them. Maybe I could have the seat fitted about an inch or so forward so I can reach the handle bars a little easier.

Thanks

Use some ROX handle bar risers to bring the bars back to you.  A number of people have put on the 2" riser.  One guy even put on a 3" riser, but he had to remove the tie straps behind the headlight and moved some wires around.

If global warming is happening...why is it so cold up here?

Seems like a great option, especially if I don't have to move any cables.
Thanks!

I ended up ordering from Corbin...

I got a backrest off ebay for under 50 bucks that works great on that seat.

Not trying to be personal but you need to get a nose job, for your seat that is.  ;D I didnt know this could be done until someone here ordered one and I ordered my seat that way, they make the nose of the seat slightly narrower. This allows you to keep your legs closer together when you put your legs down and they dont chaff on the seat as much. My 1500 seat wore out at the front edges just where your legs rub. I think the whole seat is slightly more streamlined done this way also.

Sorry I didnt know you were going to order one otherwise I would have told you upfront. It takes Corbin awhile to produce it so you could probably research it and see if you want it done but I would recommend it. I hope you used their seat designer also that allows you to try different materials and colors on a 3d seat model so you can see what it will look like
