Corbin seats and Smuggler

Check out the new Corbin seats and smuggler truck for the ZG1400. I have a smuggler on my 05' FJR and the color and function is fantastic. Pricey indeed but very great storage for sport riding mode with bags removed.

Posted here before, but they have added to the website a little more. I just don't know anout the look/styling of the seat itself. I like the smuggler, but since you lean forward a little when riding...will that backest pad on the smuggler actually be functional at all ? Have my doubts...need to sit on one.

I agree, It looks a bit cramped. The Long Beach Show is here this weekend and hoping Corbin may be there. If so, I'll get more info

Actually the Corbin seat is just the opposite of cramped. I have one and the seat pocket moves you far back from the stock position, so far back that even with Helibars the reach to the the bars is a long way off. I am going to have the seat modified so that the pocket is closer to the tank and closer to the stock riding position.

Had one on my ST1300

I had a Corbin seat and smuggler trunk on my ST1300. The smuggler was cool because it gave you more storage and gives the bike a different look. The back pad is worthless.
