I've got a Corbin seat that came with my C5 but I want to stick with the solo seat so I don't need it. Looks to be in near perfect shape. These go for $533 on the Corbin site ( :o), I'm thinking $250 plus shipping is a fair price. I want to put a dual seat on my G5, but this won't fit properly due to the rear fender/seat mounting frame piece, so I'm putting a stock RE seat on it. I'll put it on ebay eventually - just thought I'd stick it here first. Can take/post pix but if nobody here cares, I'll save myself the trouble.

Oh boy, I have never seen one of those in the wild!

Well, I don't know how wild this is! But here's a couple pix. I've been quite happy with the Corbin seats I've had on my BMW's over the years. Particularly because the stock BMW seats (at least on early K bikes) are terrible! But I just don't see ever putting this on my C5. The solo seat with springs is an important part of "the look", for me anyway...

Nope. No bites from here or the other forum. I'll probably throw it on ebay eventually, but I recognize it has pretty narrow appeal...

What is the difference in saddle height from the stock dual seat and this one? Or, how many inches high from the frame rails is this one?
Cheers,

Is there such a thing as a stock dual seat for a Classic? Mine only has the solo seat and I've seen pillion pads on them, but never a dual...
