Re: Corbin Seat

[Erik Miner <axeis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The Corbin seat as delivered from Corbin is 15" deep. The stock ST 
seat is 14" deep. Also the shape of the Corbin is such that one sits 
even farther from the bars due to it's bucket shape. Additionally the 
Corbin is flatter and one sits a bit lower. Depending on your height 
and reach I'd recommend having the seating position moved at least 
one inch forward and maybe as much as two inches. When I had my 
Corbin made I had them move the seating position an inch forward, in 
retrospect I'd should have gone an inch and a half.
