| Hi All, I just bought an AirHawk and installed it on the scoot. Seems to work well. Here is the thread to the site where I purchased it. You might get it for less somewhere else but this is a good price. I bought a Large Cruiser for the top of my Corbin saddle. http://www.rlmotorcycles.com/cgi-bin/eShop/index.cgi?exact_match=yes&product=AirHawk&subbcat=AirHawk_AirHawk_Motorcycle_Seat_Cushion&cart_id=1223731075.64276 DennisB |

| Hi there, Am I missing something here? Not being funny, but isn't having a Corbin seat supposed to make the scoot more comfortable..... As in no need for an airhawk? It's just I've read a lot about them, and most people really seem to swear by them, though a few curse them. For their cost I'd expect to be able to whistle for my scoot, and the Corbin seat to be able to auto pilot the scoot out of the garage to the front door!! Still at least you have a scoot with a sexy good looking seat which can now also be comfortable! Happy riding! |

| Hi Bernardo, The Corbin Saddle is hard as a rock and adds alot more overall support to a riders back side then the stock Honda seat. The AirHawk just adds to the overall riding pleasure by providing a thin layer of air softness and cooling ventalation for the long rides or just every day use around town. Works for me. Alot of people just needed to see the fit of an AirHawk mounted on a Corbin Saddle. Thanks for asking and I hope this clears up any questions. DennisB |

| Personally, I think you are spreading a bad rap for all the rocks out there. I have sat on your seat and I know a lot of rocks. That seat is not near as soft as the rocks in my neighborhood. Please be more kind in your comments from now on.

| Hi Gary,
Are you saying that you went out and sat on all the rocks in Rison AR and none of them where nearly as hard as the Corbin Saddle. That task must have taken some time to do. Did you pack a picknic basket and make a day of it?
Kinda puts a whole new spin on the term "Rock On Dude!!!!".

| DennisB, a question about the Corbin. Does it move you back, forward, up, down? I would like to move back on the Swing, to get a bit more legroom and a little more reach to the handlebars. Another option might be to have the stock rider seat modified to take some foam out of the movable backrest. Seems like there is a fair amount of foam in it. Any thoughts there. I feel a bit too close to the bars and more legroom is always good. I'm 6 feet and 32 inch inseam. The pegs mod looks good too. Thanks for your input. |

| Hi Jay, When a person orders a Corbin Saddle they ask you a bunch of questions like....your height and inseam meaurment so they can talor the saddle to the new owner.... some what. You do get more leg room and the seat is a little lower and as Gary said, the thing is harder then the rocks around his place. Takes a while to brake-in, either the saddle or the new owners back side. DennisB |

DennisB DB, I've had Corbins on motorcyles in the past and they are firm but I like a firm seat. I also was aware that they will, sort of, build it how you like it. I'm going to probably get one because they do look good on the Swing, I think. |
