Corbin seat for the L7 SV
There's a Corbin seat available now for the latest SV:
https://www.corbin-europe.com/index....roduct_id=3242 I assume that most people buy an SV for a number of reasons one of which is affordability. I like my L7 SV but would I spend £615 for a seat, nope. Interestingly, it is, perhaps, an example of 'priced to what the market will bear' since the same seat costs $473 (roughly £360) in the USA. It is a nice looking seat, though... (still nope). |

Re: Corbin seat for the L7 SV
any pro motorcycle seat upholsterer will do the same job for 1/3 of that price. i personally dont like the shape as typical corbin they assume that people sit right back in the seat and if you want to sit anywhere else then your going to be sitting on a 'hump'. add to that its sloping forward so you will want to slide forward.

Re: Corbin seat for the L7 SV
My son had one on a 600 bandit and I’ve got to admit it was very luxurious,but as Bibio says I would get one upholstered by somebody as they are a tad on the expensive side

Re: Corbin seat for the L7 SV
The name is even more ridiculous than the price.

Re: Corbin seat for the L7 SV
IMHO anything with that name would not be fit for purpose
