Classic Solo & Pillions for 2006-2007 Harley-Davidson Roadking
Now available from Corbin's Workshop of Wizards is this outstanding Classic style Solo Saddle with a variety of passenger pillion options for your Roadking. Designed to provide maximum rider comfort combined with a classy, nostalgic look. Provides the use of our removable rider's backrest for over 12" of vertical back support. Our sculpted seating position gives maximized body contact and provides true touring comfort with a bucket that gives plenty of lower support. Neutralized seat platform offers an easier reach to the ground and a more ergonomic position on the bike. The Corbin Classic Solo is available in a standard model and a CLOSE model with seating closer to the bars with a narrower nose.
Corbin's removable rider backrest is simple to install and adjusts easily to your riding posture. Slide the backrest shaft into the internal hardware of the Classic Solo and lock it in place with a single bolt. You can then set the backrest position to your preferred setting and lock it in place with the easily accessible adjustment screw... no need to remove the saddle to accomplish this. Choose from a variety of backrest styles to suit your taste although we recommend the #02-S Ovalbac for a good combination of looks and support. A range of finishing plate options are available for the rear of the backrest to further customize the look.
For maximized passenger comfort, we offer a touring style pillion seat for your Roadking. Designed to work with the variety of trunk models and sissy bar or luggage rack backrests available for your 'King. Wide, sculpted seating position gives excellent body support with a wide contact patch. This will eliminate hot spots and increase your passenger's riding range (that means no more annoying rest breaks while you're out racking up the mileage!) All Corbin pillion pad models will work with or without the rider's backrest in the solo seat and come decorated to coordinate with your solo.
For a more sly and vintage look we offer a 50's style pillion pad. This keeps a low profile and clean look on your bike but still provides for passenger transportation. Built up with our exclusive Comfort Cell® foam for firm support that lasts despite the slim lines. Bolts up directly with the Corbin Classic Solo for simple install. Will also work in conjunction with your Harley-Davidson passenger backrest or trunkrest option if installed.
Both the standard and Close Solo models offer the option of electric heat for those chilly morning rides. Heating elements and controller are built into the saddle with a conveniently located switch on the left side of the seat. Just wire the inclued pigtail to your HD fuse box and you're ready to go. Flip the switch to high or low and the seat heats up and automatically maintains temperature. This little bit of luxury makes an amazing difference when the ambient temperature drops!
For ultra-cool solo looks, you can run the Corbin Classic Solo Saddle by itself without a pillion seat. This allows you to show off that slick rear fender and still provides for use of the Corbin backrest if desired. To add to the custom, nostalgic look, we offer a chrome V-Rail that bolts up with the Classic solo. Triple plate chroming gives a show quality finish. Another slick option for your saddle setup is the variety of finishing plates offered for the rear of the Ovalbac series backrests. Along with our standard leather look ABS models, we offer a carbon-fiber look or paintable. For a little extra you can get one prepainted gloss black or our new chromed steel model shown here! An excellent touch!
Choose from a range of leather styles and colors for a custom touch on your new seat. Leather will provide a perch that breathes with your body and will break in along with the foam shape for a personalized fit. Be sure to care for your leather saddle with a quality conditioner like our Saddle Cream. With proper care, your seat will age gracefully developing a unique character and will be your riding buddy for years. Optional chrome studs provide an added nostalgic touch (included at no charge, just specify) along with our tuck & roll stitch pattern. If you order a heated seat, the stitch pattern is required. We've incorporated a new mounting system on this model that uses a key-lock. This makes it extremely simple to install and remove the seat as desired.
Choosing the Standard or Close model: Seating position of the Close model is roughly 1.5" closer to the bars than the standard Classic Solo. Here's a simple method to check which is right for you: Sit on your Road King with the stock seat and mark the rearmost position of your posterior with a piece of tape. Then measure to this position from the tank panel of your bike. The bucket position of the Close solo is approximately 16" from the dash while the bucket of the Standard model is 17.5". Remember, the seating position of a Corbin saddle is quite different from a stock seat so if you have any questions, feel free to ask us!
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; D 489,540S; 6,655,740 B1; 6,422,648 B1; 5,544,937; 5,608,957; 4,953,911; D545,073S & 6,971,714 B1.
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 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.
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. To see what this is all about, just click the button for More Info
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 the personalized fit. Available in a wide range of textures and styles to suit your taste. For more information about leather seating just click away.
FIBERTECH™ BASEPAN: A purpose built, hybrid material that provides a firm foundation to support the carefully designed ergonomics of the Corbin saddle.

ELECTRIC HEAT: As an option we can include electric heat in this saddle! This option provides a true bit of luxury for when the temperature starts to drop. Simple to install with major components pre-built into the saddle. Just wire in the included pigtail and you're ready to roll. Click the button at left for complete info...

Corbin's Classic Solo mounts with a new key lock system. We include a latch pin and brackets that install onto your chassis into stock locations. The saddle is then mounted with a tongue in the rear and the latch pin at the front. To remove simply turn the key and lift off the saddle.
Corbin pillion pads are designed specifically for use with the Corbin Solo Saddle and will not work with other brand solo seats. To install either pillion model, install the pin into the fender in the stock location. The front of the saddle will then be secured to the fender bracket included with the Corbin Solo saddle.
The Harley-Davidson SOLO tour pac (part #53260-02) does NOT work with the Corbin solo seat on Roadkings or Road Glides.

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.

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.

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.

A variety of finishing plate options are available to customize 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.
