KTM said it best... "This bike excites on both counts with its optimally tuned enduro characteristic for every kind of offroad adventure." That sounds right up our alley doesn't it?
Corbin's Dual Sport saddle combines the functionality of a motocross seat with the comfort of ergonomic Corbin design. The KTM EXC R rides like a true dirt bike with exceptional performance, but offers tame throttle control and ability for long trail riding... Naturally, you'll want your accessories to perform to those same standards. Our Dual Sport saddle does just that by providing aggressive riding characteristics with comfortable ergos for those moments of smooth clear trail.
KTM is well known for adapting their intense motocross machines for dual purpose just as well as Corbin is known for creating comfort. We know you have to keep your body moving if you don't want to unexpectedly part company with your bike so the shape provides free movement from rear fender to tank. Notice how you'll be able to slide all the way up the tank to coax your bike through that sandy corner or unhindered all the way back to the fender and skim over the whoops.
As you find wide open trails, just slide back toward the rear of the seat for a sculpted bucket shape. This dished shaping creates more square inches of body contact for added support and elimination of hot spots. Have a seat and soak up the distance in comfort while you catch your breath. The Corbin saddle also works excellent if you plan on throwing some street tires on your bike and making a Super Motard, hooligan commuter!
Foam density makes a difference! Too soft and you feel like you're bouncing off the basepan, too hard and you may as well be sitting on the fender. We use our exclusive Comfort Cell® foam to cast a shape that gives you the proper blend of resilience with long lasting support. Our ergonomic shape provides plenty of lateral support when you slide rearward and is sculpted narrower in the front for ground reach and mobility.
On top we use only the highest grade of weather resistant materials for durability and long life. We dressed it up in a Carbon-Fiber embossed vinyl seating that gives it a bit more flair with our new Asphalt side panels for grip. Cover is completely hand sewn and riveted to our rigid Fibertech basepan. Naturally, the material selection is completely up to you even is you just want a plain black saddle... we aim to please. Corbin's Dual Sport saddle installs like stock with a single bolt and rides on rubber bumpers to protect your bodywork and chassis.

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.
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
