Component Seating System for 2007-2008 BMW R1200 S
A new development in form and style for your Beemer... Corbin's legendary comfort for the rider with a convenient Smuggler trunk on the rear.
Our pilot saddle is designed specially to provide the comfort riders demand for longer range and sport touring comfort. Engineered to provide the perfect blend of comfort and the usual Corbin sleek styling with a range of custom options to create a unique look on your bike. Naturally, the fit and finish are perfected and pure Corbin.
Up front, the neutralized seating posture helps to reduce the tendency to slide forward in the saddle while on the brakes. This will greatly enhance your riding range by reducing strain on your wrists and knees. Corbin saddles are designed to help hold you in the sweet-spot on the bike but still allows for a range of movement for more spirited riding styles. Notice the ergonomic dish shaping of the seat. This provides you more square inches of body contact and better weight dispersion.
We've greatly enhanced comfort by building the saddle up with our high density Comfort Cell foam, but kept the racetrack styling and fit to tail section. Not only is the shaping already designed to fit the contour of the human body, but our exclusive foam material will adapt to take on your shape upon break in. Our exclusive high density material allows us to build a seating platform that provides good support even with a low profile appearance.
Corbin's slick Smuggler trunk installs in place of a passenger seat to provide convenient, locking storage for your essential travel gear. The Smuggler's door is fully weather stripped and includes a locking latch to protect your goods. Inside the locking door is a fully lined cargo area that is a perfect area to store items like maps, gloves, sun glasses and cell phones.
The top loading design of the Smuggler tail assures that your contents won't spill out when opened while the forward action of the hinge allows the door to self close if forgotten. Constructed of durable Ffibertech for years of enjoyment and comes painted to coordinate with your factory paint scheme.
Saddle includes leather seating panels along with a wide range of decorating options (shown here with Carbon-Fiber leather seating and Asphalt vinyl sides). Our leather seating provides a unique look, excellent comfort and will also break in along with your foam shape to give you a personalized fit over time. Coordinating vinyl sides keep the foam shape tight and the saddle looking sharp longer. Be sure to care for your leather saddle properly with a quality conditioner like our Saddle Cream. Your leather will age gracefully and develop its own unique character with proper care.
Corbin's patented manufacturing process allows us to create a shape that fits perfectly to the bike and contours every arc and curve of the tank and tail section. Our Fibertech basepan provides a rigid foundation that supports the foam shape to assure the carefully crafted ergonomics remain intact. Underneath, the baseplate rides on rubber bumpers to protect your paint job from scratching. Installation is simple and works on your factory key lock system. Brackets come pre-mounted on the front saddle.

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!

ERGONOMIC SHAPING: A major part of the design criteria of the Corbin saddle is the 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 to 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! Just click the button at left for an animation that shows how it works.
