Ending Mileage: 75,455
I found a nice leather Corbin seat for sale on Craigslist the other day. I think it looks much better than the seat that came with the bike. I’m still not sure about the fairing, though it is growing on me a bit. As you can see in the picture the old back rest is still on the luggage rack. I’ll probably remove it. I do have a matching backrest that came with the Corbin seat.
I took the bike for a 200 mile ride yesterday. It was a nice, early-fall day. The bike was running well, so well that I decided to take a chance and go on a gravel road that’s well outside of cell service. That’s where the picture above was taken.
The Corbin seat, while firm, was still comfortable over the 200 mile trip. If it weren’t for yard work that needed to be done, I would have tested it further.
Here’s the bike with the seat that was on it when I purchased it. It’s comfy, but I think really detracts from the bikes appearance.
