your pithy ruminations on <RE: Corbin seat colors> were:
=> Yes!
=>
=> Some artistic talent would be needed...
=>
=> When I took my Corbin off and really looked at it, I
=> could see the contact points on the "leather". I
=> actually took some measurements from the seat supports
=> on the frame to my side panels (spent waaay too much
=> on the paint to risk a rub mark) but found a pretty
=> consistent 6-7mm needing to be taken off. (This still
=> leaves a much better fit than stock seat!)
=>
=> PS--I also used rivet washers since I don't have those
=> fancy big headed ones Corbin used.
=>
My Corbin seat also doesn't have the greatest fit...but there's an easy
solution...remove the lock & latch mechanisms and put washers between the fiberglass
seat pan and the hardware. This effectively raises the seat (the reverse of cutting
away seat pan material). Very easy.
