    J'aimerais connaître les impressions de ceux qui ont mis une selle corbin.
    Ma femme depuis qu'elle a mis ses fesses gracieuses sur ma Guzzi
    elle ne veux plus monter sur ma Bonnie sous prétexte qu'elle ne voit rien derrière.
    Avec une selle Corbin, la partie arrière est 10 cm plus haute, à l'inverse de mon portefeuille
    après l'achat mon ce que nous ne ferions pas pour ces dames

    Corbins are not cheap. I infer the Issue is camouflage as much as comfort. Google King and Queen seats for whichever Bonneville has emptied your wallet.

    Well, I'm monolingual so can't interpret your posts, @pyer. But coincidentally (or not!) I was at my local H-D dealership a couple of days ago and the guy who bought my 2016 Thruxton R a couple of years ago rode up on his new Rocket 3 GT. He had a really nice Corbin seat on it that looked great. He said he's super happy with it and that he found the position suited him quite well and that it's very comfortable. I didn't ask him the price. Good luck with you seat search. I'm on the lookout for a seat myself but not a Corbin and not for my Triumph. Please post a pic or two when you make your decision and put it on your bike!

    An idiomatic translation....

    I would welcome the opinions of those who have fitted a Corbin seat. Ever sInce my wife draped her graceful buttocks over a Moto Guzzi she has been disinclined to jump on the Bonnie on the basis of a lack of rear cover. With a Corbin seat the rear portion is about 4” higher - about as much as my wallet has shrunk since shelling out for the Bonnie. The things we do for our ladies......

    I’m intrigued by the idea of graceful buttocks being draped :cool:

    Well literally he says ‘placed’ but that kind of jars with gracieuses which I have faithfully translated. Polite enquiry would halt here, non?

    Very nice, Timothy! I definitely like how that Corbin looks on your Triumph. Glad to know it's comfortable too. Good looking bike all the way 'round. :)

    Magnifique sur la speed, mais j'ai choisi de faire la transformation par un sellier
