Part of Corbin's new modular seat system! We've created a two-piece system that allows you to mix and match components for your current riding needs. On this page you'll find our front saddle combined with an enhanced passenger seat that can easily be removed and replaced with a Corbin Smuggler trunk (available soon). Our unique mounting system allows all components to work with your stock seat key lock system for hassle free conversion and will even work with your stock seat components. Naturally both the front and rear seats have been ergonomically developed for better weight dispersion and long range comfort.
Our saddles offer you a more sculpted seating platform that conforms to your body and gives more square inches of body contact. Our exclusive high-density Comfort Cell foam allows us to build a highly supportive saddle without putting a bulky shape on your bike so it always looks good. The Corbin Wizard's are masters at combining form and function into a saddle that looks as nice as it rides. Our unique Fibertech basepan molds to every contour of the bodywork for a precision fit but rides on rubber bumpers to protect your paint job. Installation is simple with included bracket and our unique lock system.
Notice how the bucket shaping is designed to emulate the shape of your body. This gives excellent support for longer range. Our neutralized seating helps to curb sliding in the saddle which greatly reduces rider fatigue. Naturally we include your choice of color options for a look that can range from outrageous to stealthy. We've created a cover design and stitch pattern that coordinates with the FJR perfectly and adds to the visual appeal. Shown here we've used black leather seating panels with Asphalt vinyl side panels, but the whole range of leather and vinyl options are included at no additional charge.
Of course we engineered in a removable passenger backrest for added security. Corbin's passenger backrest adjusts to provide a tailored fit to your copilot's posture. Once installed, the backrest is easily adjusted with a single set screw accessed from the rear. Mounts into hardware concealed inside the saddle for a perfectly clean look. Notice how the Corbin Ovalbac backrest is shaped to fit the contour of your passenger's back to maximize comfort and support value. The oval shaping of this model also helps to keep your body cool by not trapping heat.
There's nothing quite like heated seating for those chilly morning rides. For an added bit of luxury, our new FJR saddles have this option. We incorporate a heater unit under the leather seating and a switch on the left side of the saddle (so you can turn it on without removing your hand from the throttle). Just flip the switch and the seat will warm up and maintain temperature automatically. Comes completely preinstalled in the saddle and you need only integrate the included pigtail to your fuse box. Because of the two piece design, front and back saddles have separate switches that run through a dual pigtail.
Need more options? If you're looking for something a bit flashier for that Ovalbac backrest, you have a choice of finishing plates. The standard plate is a leather look ABS model, but included is your choice of Carbon-Fiber look or primer (for custom painting). For a little extra, we can supply a chromed steel plate or prepainted gloss black. Need a little bit more convenient storage but don't want to install a trunk? Take a look at this great glovebox option we now have for the Ovalbac backrests. This little beauty bolts on in place of the finishing plate and gives the perfect amount of locking storage for little essentials like a couple bottles of water, a PDA, cell phone, spare gloves, maps and sunglasses with room to spare. You'll find this the most convenient and easy to use storage on your bike... click here for complete glovebox info.
Inside the saddle we use our exclusive Comfort Cell foam to provide a firm, resilient ride that gives you long lasting support. Foam density is an important factor in long range comfort and we always say... "Firm is a good thing". Corbin uses a very unique formula of purpose built materials in our manufacturing process. Combine this with over three and a half decades of design experience and you have what is commonly considered the World's Finest Motorcycle Seat. Comfort Cell® foam combined with our patented molding process deliver unmatched contoured support. Corbin saddles feel firm when you first ride on them, but will break in and adapt to your body and support you in comfort for years to come. Enjoy the ride!
UNIQUE TECHNOLOGY:
The design and manufacture of Corbin products is so unique that
Mike Corbin himself holds more than 60 United States Patents!
From the process itself to new innovations like the Corbin
Glovebox, you can count on highly functional and unique products
that work. Corbin products are manufactured under one or more of
the following US Patents: 6,848,156 B2; 6,729,516 B2;

5,608,957; 4,953,911; D545,073S & 6,971,714 B1.
FIBERTECH™ BASEPAN:
A purpose-built hybrid material that provides a firm foundation
to support the carefully designed ergonomics of the Corbin
saddle. It provides a precision fit to every arc and contour of
the machine and rides on rubber bumpers to protect your paint.
We always design our basepans as flat as possible so bumps or
odd shapes don't telegraph through the foam to your body.

COMFORT CELL® FOAM:
The heart of the Corbin saddle! Our exclusive, purpose-built
foam material, called Comfort Cell, was created to
provide a firm, resilient ride that doesn't break down. This
means it will support you for long days on the road. Over time,
Comfort Cell will break in to provide a personalized fit to your
posture and even greater comfort!
For the complete story, just click the
button.
ERGONOMIC SHAPING:
A major part of the design criteria of the Corbin saddle is its
ergonomic shape. This means the saddle's foam shape is designed
to emulate the curves of the human body. This provides more
square inches of body contact and helps eliminate hot spots.
This shaping also neutralizes the seating platform to help curb
sliding in the saddle, which reduces fatigue. In a nutshell:
more comfort for a longer ride!

how it works.
PATENTED MANUFACTURING TECHNOLOGY:
Always an innovator, Mike Corbin invented Integrated Molding
technology, which is now the process by which all Corbin
saddles are made. This process allows extremely tight
tolerances and creates a chemical bond between the foam and
base material.

more information.
GENUINE LEATHER:
We use leather in all panels of the seat that contact your body.
This provides a luxurious ride that breathes with your body.
Leather will also break in along with the foam shape to support
a personalized fit. Available in a wide range of textures and
styles to suit your taste.

Please note, if you will be using a trunk system on your bike, the Corbin backrest will not be needed.
Saddles install easily on your FJR with all hardware included. Rear saddle or Smuggler trunk bolts down to the subframe and the front seat latches on your bike like stock. Corbin components will interchange and work with your stock seat components.
On this seat model, you will need to secure the backrest in place with the safety screw BEFORE the rear saddle is installed on the motorcycle.
Corbin saddles (with very few exceptions) include
Genuine Leather Seating
to provide a luxurious look and feel... don’t let anybody tell you
that vinyl is just as good! You wouldn’t buy vinyl boots, would you?
WARNING:
Heater elements (when available) should never be installed in
motorcycle seats that will be used by riders that cannot sense heat.
This could create a hazardous condition.
Testimonials:
