Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 бер 2023
- I wanted to upgrade my comfort on my rebel and used some of my tax return to splurge and get the Corbin classic seat. Its probably the best upgrade I've made to the bike. If and when I tour I wanted to have the most comfort. If you are on the verge of pulling the trigger hopefully this will help you decide.
My Gear:
Helmet: Shoes RF-1400
My Jacket: Fly CoolPro Mesh
My Gloves: Reax Tasker Perorated
My Camera Equipment:
Helmet Cam: GoPro Hero 11
Camera Mic: Giant Squid Mic
Gopro Helmet Mount: Chin Mounts

Good video! I was just playing with Corbin's configurator earlier so its nice to see this. Stock seat definitely gets ya in the booty after a bit.
Thanks man I appreciate it. Yeah I played with that editor for a while but I’m pretty happy with the results
I love the way your Corbin looks. I had a Corbin on my Nighthawk and Mustangs on my Shadow. I noticed the Corbin was harder than the Mustang but both are far better than the stock seats
I would agree 100%
Omg you live sooooo close to me!!! I recently moved to Byesville, Ohio from Marietta at the beginning of this year. Kinda fell on your channel by accident. Pretty cool to hear there’s UA-camrs close by. I’m a brand new rider, like I mean brand new! Like I just passed my riding course, which I took down in Marietta. I bought a 2023 Honda Rebel 500 SE from Bigtown Powersports over in Marietta last month. I’ve ordered several mods for my bike to make it more comfortable for me. I’m only 5’3 and not a super skinny chic so although I haven’t put hardly any miles on my Rebel, I could tell instantly that the stock seat sucked ass! So my seat is on a UPS seat somewhere as we speak. I ordered the Gunfighter seat so hopefully it turns out to be worth the $500 price tag! Anyways, I’m super stoked to see a You Tuber close by. I don’t know anyone who rides anywhere around me. Stay safe out there. Good luck with your channel!
Heck yeah. I got my rebel 1100 from big hometown motorsports. They are great people and do a really good job. Yeah I’m always riding around and filming. I hope you like your seat it’s a very comfortable seat. Thank you I will do my best on the channel.
That seat looks great.
Thanks dude I love it
good looking seat will check them out trying to get my Rebel 1100 comfortable Thanks
It makes it so much better. I love mine.
Good looking seat for a good looking bike.
Thanks it’s pretty comfy
Good vid man as a new Sub i want more video's 😂
More to come for sure!!
I got the corbin gunfighter seat on mine. World of difference. I think the stock seat is okay, but clearly is the worst thing about the bike.
Yeah I would agree it’s not bad but it could be better
I disagree- the stock seat was horrible 😂
My butt is numb after 15 minutes. I don’t let that stop me but I’m going to have to replace the stock seat
How about bar risers to get ergonomics back to closer to original? Probably wouldn't need much. 19mm or so. Helped a lot on some of my bikes to eliminate shoulder fatigue.
Yeah I will probably put 4 in bar risers soon
So it's been a few months since you got the Corbin seat. I just ordered one for my Rebel. How have you been liking it so far? Also got a question about it. Does it give any back support, or feel like it keeps you in the seat better? I'm a tall guy 6'4 and 340 and I feel like I'm about to slide off the back of the bike when I get on the throttle on the stock seat.
So I will have a video that will be coming out soon on a 3000 mile review but I feel way better in the Corbin seat than I ever would on the stock. I do feel like I stay in the seat very well and I’m 5’11” 290.
Good info on the seat I’m 511 290 pounds just wondering what shock settings you’re using I just picked up a 2023 brand new 1100 T need to adjust the shocks and thought maybe between the two of you, I could get a starting point any help would be very much appreciated.
@@KT-df1fe I'm about 330lbs rn and have the springs at the stiffest setting (18 clicks) and I don't bottom out, but it's close. What you can do to see how much travel you're using in the springs is put a zip tie around the central rod and then go for a ride. See how far down it's pushed. Adjust the springs and go for another ride and see how it changed.
Can I ask how tall you are? I am 6'2" myself and you mentioned being a taller rider so I was wondering how we compare.
I’m at 5’11”
@@therideofalifetime Thanks for the info, I think I am going to pull the trigger because of you 👍
Aye good to see someone from West Virginia I’m down towards Charleston
Heck yeah man. Are you going to life of Burch’s meet up
@@therideofalifetime I would love to go he’s the main reason I bought an rebel 1100 but I unfortunately couldn’t get off work to go up there for it. We gotta meet up and ride sometime never been up to that part of West Virginia
@@MegaTocool4you heck yeah I’m down
@@MegaTocool4you sorry you couldn’t get off work for it
@@therideofalifetime hell yea it would be a good time and it’s all good there is always next year
The gentleman who vlogs under the title, "life of burch" said he noticed that his Corbin seat damaged his Rebel 1100's paintwork. Have you checked that issue?
So over time It’s a little bit scratched but I’m going to address that in a video I have on the back burner right now
I added weather striping to my seat seams to help
How much are they?
They are $620 and then after shipping 690. I’d say if you are looking for a cheaper option I’d go with the mustang seat. It’s called the solo tripper they go for just over 300
@@therideofalifetime Thank you
Right at $700 for a Seat is highway robbery. IMO
It would have to be more comfortable than a lazy boy recliner..
Yes but when you need a comfortable seat and never replace it. It was worth it for me. It makes my big butt feel good and I can ride forever.
