Looking for a seat lower than stock and it I think a Corbin would work. I only need the front seat. Looking for all black with no stitching.

Thanks!

 
You better try one out first. While they claim the seat pan is an inch lower the extra width makes it about equal with regards to planting you'r feet on the ground,..if not actually a bit more awkward which you'll get used to. Buy it for it's increased comfort and you'll not be dissapointed. But as others have noted spending the extra on a true custom might get you closer to the ground. For me the Corbin was the right balance btween price and comfort.

+1 on Don's comments. I have a Corbin as well. I don't feel any difference between it and stock as to feet touching the ground. Big difference on how it treats my body. I just did almost 600 miles yesterday and had no butt burn at all. Of course proper rider gear and under garments make a big difference too. I can understand why people either love the Corbin or hate it. everyone that sits on it for the first time say it's hard. I am really happy with it, but that is from the comfort.
