I had the same problem with corbins communication and the samples. But I will say I replaced rear shocks with the indian fox shocks and replaced front springs with progressive. Deffinatly worth it . Love videos
jason pabon hmmm I should think about it, def can’t hurt! Wasn’t sure about the Fox shocks, all people talk about are the Progressives. Did the spring change up front make a big noticeable difference?
@@HellaStokedGarage Yes the front does make a difference. If you get on it you will notice the front jumps up and by up grading the the front springs it really stiffens up the front end .
They must've updated the website cause the ordering seems fairly straight forward with regards to color/style options. Having said that it would be a great help if the picture would illustrate the options as you choose them...in other words let me see what it looks like at least!
I just ordered a corbin seat myself. Your right. You won't get answers online. But I put my order in online with height/weight/etc.., and then called directly after to hash out the details. Everything was groovy. Now the wait....
Hella Stoked Garage good to hear. Makes me nervous dropping that kind of cash on something and not being able to talk to someone about it. The website sucks too, they need to get that shit right.
The camera positions are awesome. Reminds me of Lenos productions while riding. Thanks for the tips. But, now i might trade in my Road King Classic! That seat really fits in.
Thank you for the information you help me make my choice for 1000 bucks the seat better be perfect. There should be no hard spots or discomfort in my opinion.
Best corbin review yet. Everything from dealing with the company, to the seat itself. Was wondering if it ever softened up or if you were able to send it back to remove that golf ball.
Love the vids.. any idea if the solo Corbin seat will fit with the stock Indian passenger seat? I'm not wild about the gap between the two Corbin seats when put together. I'm thinking about getting the one piece Corbin Brave or the Corbin solo seat and have the stock seat upholstered to match.. thanks!
Hi mate, I know this thread is a year-old but as others have mentioned corbin website suck. Could you email details of what you choose for that seat.? My email xmarkgtv@hotmail.com Many thanks.
@@HellaStokedGarage sounds good, whatcha thinking about for the exhaust? I know there's a few choice how to pick hmm.. well either way the bike is coming along!
Eugene Avila I’m thinking either Vance and Hines or some other slash cut, I definitely don’t like long ones, the Trask slip ons look pretty good too...idk maybe a two into one. Do you have a Bobber?
@@HellaStokedGarage no I dont have that bike I have a old project bike that I'm in the process of bobbing it. For the past few weeks I've been watching videos about Indians and definitely want one! Did you consider the dark horse chief at all before this bike?
Eugene Avila No I was considering a Harley Fat Boy actually but then test drove it and hated it, then tested the Bobber and was hooked! You should do videos of your build!
I’m 6’1, I’m yeah it’s a good seat, I don’t like how the backrest bracket is in the rear of the seat I can feel it on the back of my ass cuz right I. The center it’s hard, I’m sure I could have sent it back to get it fixed but didn’t, but the seat is great, I don’t think my bobber is big enough for anybody over 6’ that’s my opinion
Ya I tried that too but no luck, that’s why I looked at the different leather choices they have, googled a million different Corbin seats to see pictures then called in my order
@@HellaStokedGarage right on thanks man. I have had my bobber for 10months and only put 400miles on it. The seat pegs and handle bars definitely need changed0_0 what bars did you get??
Their website is absolute garbage. That’s what has stopped me from ordering. What they show on the site is not what they are giving you. The colors don’t match reality and they know it doesn’t.
I do agree, the only reason I knew I was getting the exact seats I wanted is because a Corbin truck was set up at Street Vibrations here in Reno so I got to see and feel what I liked

gil feel the same way. Would be great to see examples😐

Ordered my Corbin 2 weeks ago and can’t wait to get it. You’re right, the communication with them sucks.
Yes!!! Oh man, ya it’s rough but when u get the seat you will be happy 😃

No: Six heck ya! Thanks!!

thats a nice ass looking bike, that matt black with white got me hella stoked
Best corbin review yet. Everything from dealing with the company, to the seat itself. Was wondering if it ever softened up or if you were able to send it back to remove that golf ball.
Your new seat setup is what I’m looking to purchase , how about doing a vid showing the detail work with a closeup , thanks for the vids
Ok I can do that!
funny enough they now have stitching option on their website, must have seen your video lol
i would suggest using some leather conditioner to soften said spot, hope it helps
Need to get one. Other people say the stock seat hurts after about 30 minutes
Dude, after 10 min!
That's what I had on my vrod did momma approve?

It might, I should have checked before I sold the stock passenger seat
Could you post somewhere exactly what seat you ended up with? Leather finish, stitching type, color, etc.? Thanks.
You on Instagram or have an email I can send it to?
Hi mate,
I know this thread is a year-old but as others have mentioned corbin website suck.
Could you email details of what you choose for that seat.?
My email xmarkgtv@hotmail.com
Many thanks.
What color did you go with? Is it the bomber jacket color?
No just straight black, I asked the rep if the bomber jacket black was dark black he said it had grays in it so I said no just black on black please
do you think a indian bobber is good for somebody that haven't rode in about 35 yrs?
I do! Basically 35 years went by since I rode and I got one...they are so nimble and manuver really nice. Go test ride that sucker!
No excuse as to why motorcycle manufactures can't put decent seats on bikes.
Thanks for the review! So what's next for upgrades?
Eugene Avila thanks! Well got to do the passenger seat, got in an led headlight today also then some new exhaust. That’s pretty much it I think
@@HellaStokedGarage sounds good, whatcha thinking about for the exhaust? I know there's a few choice how to pick hmm.. well either way the bike is coming along!

How tall are you? Think its a good seat for a taller rider?
I’m 6’1, I’m yeah it’s a good seat, I don’t like how the backrest bracket is in the rear of the seat I can feel it on the back of my ass cuz right I. The center it’s hard, I’m sure I could have sent it back to get it fixed but didn’t, but the seat is great, I don’t think my bobber is big enough for anybody over 6’ that’s my opinion
Website looks very outdated.
How do I customize my seat it wont let me on the website. I tried in months ago and it showed a pic of what you were interested in now it doesn't
Ya I tried that too but no luck, that’s why I looked at the different leather choices they have, googled a million different Corbin seats to see pictures then called in my order
@@HellaStokedGarage I wonder why they dont let you see the options anymore... well what did you go with on your options ? I like your seat alot
akcream I went with black leather seating area, double diamond stitching, black sides, no studs no welts
@@HellaStokedGarage right on thanks man. I have had my bobber for 10months and only put 400miles on it. The seat pegs and handle bars definitely need changed0_0 what bars did you get??
I picked up some stock scout/scout 60 bars off eBay, you can buy reduced reach bars for the bobber from Indian but they weren’t avail at the time
Hi - How much did you pay for the seat?
Their website is absolute garbage. That’s what has stopped me from ordering. What they show on the site is not what they are giving you. The colors don’t match reality and they know it doesn’t.
I do agree, the only reason I knew I was getting the exact seats I wanted is because a Corbin truck was set up at Street Vibrations here in Reno so I got to see and feel what I liked
Mother road is the only seat worth buying.
Corbin seats suck, Mother Road is the way to go.
Oh yeah corbin seats suck
