Sounds like a hartco seat...but they were never sold by yamaha...it would raise you up..had one on my 1100 v star ...loved it...
craigatcsi Posted September 27, 2009 #3 Posted September 27, 2009 An aquaintance let me sit on his new 08 Venture with a Corbin that the dealer installed before he picked the bike up. THAT seat, (hard as most Corbins are), does make you sit lower to the ground. craigr
jfoster Posted September 27, 2009 #4 Posted September 27, 2009 I've got the comfort cruise from yamaha which is firm like a corbin seat. As far as I can tell, it's the same height as the factor seat, except that it doesn't compress when you set on it.
Whitlow Posted September 27, 2009 Author #5 Posted September 27, 2009 Here is a link to the seat I'm talking about I know someone that wants to sell one but he lives to far away to check it out before I could buy it. http://www.cruisercustomizing.com/detail.cfm?model_ID=42&Category_ID=1&manufacturer_ID=165&product_ID=3168
cecdoo Posted September 27, 2009 #6 Posted September 27, 2009 I believe its the Corbin and its saying the passenger Backrest is 3" taller. not the seat itself. If you dont like the passenger backrest let me know I mite be interested. Thanks Craig

buddy Posted September 27, 2009 #8 Posted September 27, 2009 That is made by Corbin and no it will not set you higher in the seat, matter of fact it will set you lower to the ground which I like due to my knee's. The Corbin passenger back rest is three inches higher than stock. I love the ride the Corbin puts out, I can go all day with the Corbin with no hot spots or leg problems but it tears Peg's back up real bad - Seat is too hard for her. So if you ride two up it may may not work for your Passenger? If you want to save some money get you one with out the Yamaha logo same seat same ride.
