Dual Tour for Yamaha V-Star 1100 Classic (2000-2007) / Custom (2001-2007)
Dual Touring Saddle provides exquisite looks combined with maximum comfort for two! This model offers two ergonomically sculpted seating positions that maximize the available seating area on your bike. Notice the bucket shaping in both the rider and passenger areas? This creates tons of long range support by dispersing your weight over a greater area and eliminating hot spots. Additionally, the shaping is designed to eliminate the centralized pressure and support you more from the sides... your V-Star becomes a touring bike!
Dual Touring Saddle accepts a removable backrest in the rider AND passenger's position. Corbin backrests are fully adjustable for a tailored fit to your posture and are simple to install with just a single screw under the saddle (once installed, angle adjustment does not require removal of backrest). In this seat model, you can use a single backrest transferred front to back as needed or get two backrests for full time use. Front backrest folds down to make it easier to mount your bike. Choose any of the backrest models we offer to suit your taste. If you prefer, this saddle will also work with your sissy bar in the rear... we even offer a coordinated sissy bar pad to complete the custom look!
To add a nostalgic touch to your Dual Tour setup, we have a chromed V-rail that bolts up to the Corbin seat. Our V-rail looks very cool and installs easily onto the saddle into hardware that is built in. Comes to you in show quality chrome ready to install.
As with all Corbin saddles, genuine leather seating is included in your choice of styles. Leather makes a great seating material due to its durability and its ability to breathe with your body. Leather will also break in with the foam shape for a personalized fit. Coordinated vinyl side panels complete the look and keep your saddle shape tight. For a more nostalgic look, chrome studs are included... all you have to do is ask! Just remember that you need to care for your leather saddle properly using a quality conditioner like our Saddle Cream. This will help your leather to stay water resistant and develop its own unique character as it ages.
No other motorcycle saddlemaker in the world offers this kind of versatility and quality in their saddle designs. Genuine leather, removable backrests and a host of included decorating options make Corbin the best value around for your hard earned dollar! Saddle for V-Star Classic installs with a tongue in the front and a single bolt into the fender at the rear (as shown above). Use one of our chromed billet thumbscrews (#ACST-8M) for tool free installation and a very clean look at the rear. Dual Tour saddle for V-Star Custom mounts with rear bracket transferred from your stock seat.
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. 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...
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. Supported by internal hardware for a very clean look. Backrests adjust to rider's profile for a tailored fit and install or remove easily as desired. A very popular option!

Dual Touring Saddle for V-Star Classic installs with a tongue in the front and a single bolt into your fender at the rear. Accepts #ACST-8M thumbscrew. Saddle for V-Star Custom uses rear bracket transferred from your stock seat.
When ordering a sissy bar pad for your Yamaha, you can verify the correct fitment using these photos as a guide. There are a few different sissy bar systems available from Yamaha and this is a good way to assure you get the correct part.
Compare the bolt pattern of your sissy bar to the bolt pattern shown for each of the pads to assure proper bolt alignment.
The #4WM-41 and #YRS-PAD have the same bolt pattern on the rear and same shape to the bar. The big difference between these two is the thickness of the pad. The #YRS-PAD is designed to work with the Royal Star sissy bar that leans further back than the Drag Star model.

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.
