[Ride-Of-The-Valkyrie]

Went two seasons on the stock seat and that was all I could take. I looked for many options but Corbin was it. I believe the two options are the Gunslinger solo seat (looks nice and conforms to the rear of the bike) and Dual Tourer. I bought the Dual Tourer for my bike just because it gave me more options with the back rest. My 2014 has a custom paint job. The first owner owned a paint shop. I'm the third owner. Here's a pic of my bike. It's light metal flake with ghost flames. I didn't buy it because of the paint, but for the performance and ratings of the bike.

Well looks like I will need a corbin now...my wife is officially sick of bike talk, so I will tell her we need it later

When I mounted the Corbin Dual Tourer it had a set screw for the back rest. It prevents theft of the back rest (they are laughably expensive) by securing it to the seat, but I can remove it (the bike looks way better without it) or I can move it to the back slot for a passenger. It stays in place very well when I ride and I'm happy I decided not to use the set screw. Time will tell if I will regret that (no regerts 🤣).

As far as your wife officially being tired of bike talk, we're here for you man.

Agree the bike looks way better with out it. I didn't buy it because I figure I am leaning forward most of the time, so what benefit would I get out of it?

In my case, with the back rest in, it settles me into the saddle more, especially on the curves. Definitely has a better feeling of controlling the bike. It makes a difference for me.
