Got a New Seat Need some Opinions???? 3 Years ago  
GOT A NEW SEAT CAUSE THE WEATHER'S BEEN GREAT AND MY GIRL HAS BEEN COMPLAINING ABOUT NOT BEING ABLE TO RIDE WITH MY SOLO SEAT ON.
I FOUND A CORBIN STINGER ON EBAY AND JUST HAD IT RE-DONE WITH OSTRICH LEATHER. THEY ADDED A LITTLE MORE FOAM ON THE PASSENGER TAIL.

WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK; IT KINDA CHANGED THE LOOK FOR ME?
1ST ONE IS MY ORIGINAL SET UP
2ND PIC IS NEW

I think it looks great on your bike. Your girl will let you know about the rest.

Get a cushion and strap it to the rack. I don't see how she could be comfortable on that "V".

Your bike is BEAUTIFUL in that 1st picture. The 2nd one I think the seat takes something away.

Just my opinion, but you know what they say about opinions.

It doesn't look right, I agree with tealw1; so you should send the seat to me. I will take it off of your hands. It will look better on a brown/tan bike, like mine.

Sorry, DJ, but I have to agree with the others... the ostrich doesn't quite get it for me like the solo seat did, but she can't ride on either one... so what's the point? Did I miss something?

Dj, What did they charge to re-do the seat and add more foam if I might ask? I have a Corbin tour seat. It is only good for a "tour" of less than 25 miles or 1/2 hour. If I ever went on a real tour, I would probably be in the hospital with blisters on my butt! I got to get some more padding in the thing and wondered what they charged. Thanks

Well I guess I can always switch back. At least this way she doesn't sit on sweaters or towels.

Thanks Guys!
