Ok so after about 100 miles of riding on my longer rides, my ass starts to get sore. So my question to you all is will a Corbin seat really make a big difference, and who hear actually has one?

Myself and a few others that I ride with on a regular basis have corbins and we noticed a huge difference versus the stock seat. For your bike I am not sure. You might be best of checking a few of the forums specific to your bike.

I see by your avatar you have danced with the Dragon![]()
How was it? Been looking into riding the Tail of the Dragon... Heard some good stuff (300+ turns) and some bad stuff (Cops thicker than fleas on a dog) about it...![]()
Now back to the topic.... whatever it was![]()
Life is full of curves...just lean into them!!!
I love my Corbin! After a 12 hour day down at the Dragon, my ass was still feelin mighty'fine.
It sure does make a difference. Well worth the 300 bucks.

Mine is great! It makes long rides much more enjoyable. The only problem I have with it is it decreases the ride height by 1.5 inches or so. This would be fine but it makes legroom a little more cramped when on the pegs. Not all models are identical though so it may not apply to you. Thats just a minor complaint and it is definitly a good investment. Try and pic on up on the cheap on eBay or the forums. I think I paid 160 for mine on ebay brand new. They do take a while to break in as well.

Corbins rule!
They call them "Saddles" cause they're not just seats!
They're shaped to fit your ass, your ass doesn't have to shape to fit the seat!

Corbin makes seats for more applications, but if Sargent makes a seat for your bike I'd go with that.
And, yes, I have the Sargent and it makes a very big difference...especially on long rides. The other great thing about my seat is that it came with retractable cargo hooks (my bike didn't come with any cargo hooks at all) and an extra, removable, storage comparment that I use to keep a tire plug kit and some first aid stuff.
