Georgia, thanks for posting the link. I am looking for a bck rest for me on the Heritage and the HD replacement seat is a bike payment and some more. Prices look reasonable.:clap:

I don't sit enough to need it :-P Actually, my Corbin seems to be working nicely. I just wish it did not have the leather cover material. I'd prefer the more durable naugahyde or something similar.

The Corbin on the KLR looks meatier than the one for the DRZ, but I still like the one for the DRZ. If Corbin used a cheap plastic seat pan like stock, then we could have a tech session on vinyl recovering which I have become somewhat proficient at.

I did not want to pay close to 500 for a seat for the DRZ otherwise I would have considered it.

Ditto that! Plus, I would hate to see how those 'wings' fare after a mutt park*.
*fun new term being used on advrider = crash, dump, or just plain fallen down.

I've been contemplating getting a Bill Mayer for mine, the "wings" aren'[t quite as drastic.

Now that looks good. Hmmm, they're cheaper then Bill's also.

The Mayer seats look cushy, but if they add even an inch to seat height, I would be in trouble. Thank goodness the corbin on my bike works for me. I wasn't really thrilled with the corbin for the Z750s.
