I towed my bike down to Hollister yesterday and had a heated Corbin saddle installed. My pics are posted in this thread:

➜ [Motorcyclists: I’m looking for a replacement saddle - #7 by Bullitt](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/motorcyclists-i-m-looking-for-a-replacement-saddle/1027581/7) 🔲

Mike Corbin himself stopped in briefly. He said he started building saddles in the late 1960s while he was living in Connecticut and working at Pratt & Whitney there. When he told a friend he was quitting Pratt & Whitney to make motorcycle saddles full time, his friend said it’ll never work because motorcycles already have saddles on them.
