John, no gripes from this Corbin owner.  Although, those who don't do touring or regular commuting may find it uncomfortable.  Corbins are very dense (hard), and built for day-long comfort.  Think of an old tractor seat -- very uncomfortable at first, but built to sustain many hours of continuous use.

I learned the hard way to really protect your Corbin -- as the company charges more to re-cover the seat than most used ones sell for.  So, I recommend using the OEM seat for short trips or daily commuting, and switch out to the Corbin only for long trips.  Protect it from the weather as well.

HTH.
