Classic Solo for 2008-2009 H-D Softail Rocker FXCW & FXCWC
Classic solo is designed to provide maximum rider comfort combined with a nostalgic look appropriate to the Rocker. Allows use of our removable rider's backrest for 13 inches of vertical back support (seat & backrest combined). Our sculpted seating position gives maximized body contact and provides touring quality support. Neutralized seat platform offers an easier reach to the ground and a more ergonomic position on the bike.
Corbin's optional removable rider backrest is simple to install and adjusts easily to your riding posture. Slide the backrest shaft into the internal hardware of the Corbin Solo and lock it in place with a single bolt. You can then set the backrest position to your preferred angle 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. We recommend the #02-S Ovalbac (shown) for best combination of looks and support.
Saddle is built up with Corbin's exclusive Comfort Cell foam material for a firm supportive bucket that lasts. Built nearly twice as firm as the stock foam material so your body doesn't sink through the foam and create hot spots. Bucket design spreads weight evenly to support your body from the sides and eliminate centralized pressure. Comfort Cell also breaks in over over the miles to adapt to your body and provide a custom fit to your profile.
Classic Solo saddle is tastefully designed to fit perfect to the tank and chassis for a very clean look. Ergonomic shape provides a clean appearance with a flowing line and integrated skirts to conceal the installation points. Built on our Fibertech base material that provides the structural strength for the integrated backrest system and to support the carefully designed foam shape.
NOTE: Because of the added structural strength required for the backrest support system, we include a set of hardened steel bolts and lock washers for saddle installation. Do not reuse the oem hardware when installing the Corbin solo saddle!
On the outside, Corbin's Classic solo uses genuine leather in the seating panels for a luxurious perch that breathes with your body. On the model shown here we've used our standard natural grain leather seating with black faux-ostrich center trim, natural black sides and Asphalt skirts for added contrast. If you prefer something a bit flashier, we also offer grey faux-snake center trim or plain black to keep it subtle. For a clean appearance from the rear, we include a molded ABS cover under the seat with a ribbed design that coordinates nicely.
Leather seating 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.
If you would like to add a bit of storage to your Rocker, check out the Corbin Glovebox. Bolting onto your #02-S Corbin backrest in place of a finishing plate to provide convenient locking storage. Sized just ride to keep all your essentials like cell phone, maps, water bottles and spare gloves. Available in unfinished ABS (black) or prepainted gloss black for a little extra. Comes fully lined with a locking door to secure your gear. For complete info, just check out our Accessories section.

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
FIBERTECH™ BASEPAN: A purpose built, hybrid material that provides a firm foundation to support the carefully designed ergonomics of the Corbin saddle. Provides a precision fit to every arc and contour of the machine and rides on rubber bumpers to protect your paint. Click on the button at left to learn more...
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.

CORBIN BACKREST SYSTEM: The first and most versatile removable backrest system available for motorcycles! Corbin's backrests provide added vertical back support and long range comfort.

The authorized biography of Mike Corbin, written by our friend William Carrington. Following the triumphs and trials of a lifetime developing new ideas from motorcycle seats to electric cars. An all American story! *Excerpts*
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*
All the functionality of an adjustable backrest, combined with the smallest profile possible. This model is often used as a rider's backrest in Gunfighter seat models just like the #02-G shown above. Includes genuine leather seating and color coordinating options just like our saddles *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*
Take good care of your new seat and the seat will take good care of you. Designed to help your leather saddle remain weather resistant and keeps the hide supple. This will allow the leather to break in and age gracefully. Great for boots, gloves & jackets too. Simple rub-in, buff out application. *More Info*
