Dual Touring Saddle for 2008 H-D Electra-Glide / Road Glide
The most comfortable two-up saddle available for your bagger! Dual sculpted seating positions provide ergonomically corrected body fit for proper weight distribution. Generously contoured to eliminate the centralized pressure you feel with the stock seat. More square inches of body contact area helps to eliminate hot spots and support your body for longer riding comfort.
On the inside, Corbin's exclusive Comfort Cell(R) foam material gives firm support that conforms to your body over time for a personalized fit. Naturally, we keep a nice flowing line on the bike that integrates with the vintage theme.
COMING SOON: For riders of varying stature, we have added a "Close" model Dual Touring saddle. This particular seat model has all the features and benefits of the standard Dual Tour, but is built with seating closer to the bars for easier reach. We've also made the nose a bit narrower to give easier ground reach at stop signs. To figure out which model is right for you, just sit on your bike and have a friend measure your seating position relative to the fender screw. Compare the measurement to this illustration and you're ready to go.
This version of our Dual Touring Saddle accepts two optional removable rider's backrests. Naturally, if your bagger has a trunk, you will NOT want a backrest for the rear position. Backrests are fully adjustable for a tailored fit to your posture and install or remove easily as desired.
In the front we have engineered the backrest to fold down to make it easier to mount your bike. This special hardware, which is built into the saddle, also allows the backrest position fore and aft to be adjusted to your stature. Once the backrest is installed, both of these adjustments can be performed without removing the saddle from the motorcycle. You can use a single Corbin backrest that transfers front to back as needed or get two backrests for full time use. Installation of the Corbin backrest is easy enough to make this possible at a moments notice.
If your 'Glide has a Harley-Davidson Tour Pak installed, we make an optional coordinated trunk armrest to give your bike a totally integrated look. Constructed of the same quality materials as our Dual Tour saddle with a cover to match. Sculpted shape fits the contour of your passenger's back for proper weight dispersion. Installs just like stock.
We have also designed the Dual Touring Saddle to work with the "detachable" sissy bar / passenger rests available from Harley-Davidson. We even make a coordinated backrest pad to complete the look (#RK-PAD). This seat will also work with the detachable racks in combination with the Corbin Streamliner trunk! There are several sissybar systems available, we have tested compatibility with these models:
Tall Detachable Sissy Bar #529337A (with HD or Corbin pad)
Short Detachable Sissy Bar #52935-04 (with HD pad)
Tour Pak Rack #53303-07
Tour Pak models: #53147-98B, #53018-04A, #53092-05 & #53690-06
The ergonomic design of the Dual Touring saddle also gives a nice flowing shape on the bike for a clean look. For a very clean installation, you can replace your stock seat tab screw with one of our Chromed Billet thumbscrews (#ACST-20). A very nice look and tool free installation!
For the ultimate luxury for those early morning rides try our heated seating option. A single switch controls the heat for both the rider and passenger positions. The switch is conveniently located along the left side of the saddle so you can reach it without taking your hand off the throttle. The two position switch allows you to select a heat level depending on conditions. Once on, the level of heat is controlled automatically by a thermostat built into the control unit under the saddle. Of course, it is very simple to install into your stock wiring.
Saddle is covered using genuine leather seating inserts for total riding luxury. We've designed this seat with a faux Ostrich stripe insert and woven welting for a bit of custom flair. Tuck and roll stitch pattern completes the look. If you prefer a more subtle design, we can use plain black in the stripe and welting.
Installation is simple using the tab in the front and a single screw into your fender at the rear. If you opt for electric heat, we provide everything you need to integrate into your stock HD wiring harness.

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.

Leather will also break in along with the foam shape to support the personalized fit. Available in a wide range of textures and styles to suit your taste.

Our most popular backrest model is the perfect blend of form and function. The size looks visually appropriate on most every seat yet is large enough to provide good, sculpted support. Works well in either the rider's or passenger's position. The standard Ovalbac is available with a range of finishing plate options to dress up the rear including chrome! *More Info*
The standard Corbin backrest for years! This model is the same size and shape as the Standard Ovalbac above, but without the hole in the middle. Provides plenty of sculpted back support without looking too big on the bike. Works in both the rider or passenger seating area on virtually all Corbin saddle models. This model also has the option of chrome studs if desired. *More Info*
Like the Standard Ovalbac show above, but with a larger contact area for added support. Works great as a passenger backrest in Dual Touring models. Because of the added width, we do not recommend this model in the front position while carrying a passenger... it may interfere with their legs. Sculpted to provide wide ergonomic support. Offers a variety of finishing plate options to customize the rear (sorry, no chrome). *More Info*
This model is specially designed to be used in the large Dual Touring seats (like HD Baggers) or in Master's Type saddles as found on the Goldwings. Sculpted for extended support both vertically and horizontally, but cut away at the bottom to provide clearance for passenger's legs. A variety of finishing plate options are available to customize the rear. *More Info*
If you want the functionality of a backrest, but also want the smallest appearance possible, this is the backrest model for you. This one is most often used as a rider's backrest in Gunfighter seat models (thus the name). Includes a variety of finishing plate options for the rear. *More Info*
A convenient storage solution that looks great too. Corbin's Glove Box bolts up easily to your #02-S(B) model backrest in place of the rear finishing plate to provide four liters of locking storage. Available in primer or pre-painted. Some color matches are available depending on bike make and model. Comes fully lined too! *More Info*
