Not really an answer to your question as I have had no experience with the brand in question but for your consideration I have had two Corbin Gunfighters purchased new from Corbin several years apart . The first one had a nicely made seat pan - fiberglass perhaps? - and said pan had several quality control inspection stickers on it . The nose of the seat where it met the back of the tank was nicely covered in suede . The only thing I didn’t like was the upholstery down the the center of the hump was done in a spear point . A little too Harleyesque for my tastes but nice workmanship . Fast forward to a couple years ago - when finishing up a total redo of my Commando I planned on making a rigid cowl for the seat hump to be painted to match the tank . Since I never liked the point and it would have interfered with the rigid cowl plan I contacted Corbin about recovering the seat . More than half the price of a new one and by the time I paid shipping from east coast to west and back it was more than the cost of a new seat so I sold the original and ordered a new one . Big quality difference between the two . The new seat pan was made of some rough compound- likely recycled material. No quality inspection stickers evident . No more suede on the nose - just the upholstery turned over and pop riveted . The upholstered hump itself had a large dent in it . If I wasn’t going to make a rigid cowl I would have returned it . The price for the new seat was considerably more than what I paid for the original. Corbin has slipped a bit in my eyes so keep this in mind when choosing which way to go . Hope this helps .
