Vaquero Corbin Dual Tour w/Backrest

I'm selling my Corbin Dual Tour seat (studded) with backrest as I'm too short for it to be comfortable. I'm 5'8" with a 30" inseam and the seat puts me too far back to be comfortable. I've added risers to increase the bar pullback, but can't get comfortable with the backrest in place and can't sit back far enough to get the support from the rise on the back of the seat. Anyone interested should be at least 6' in height with a 32" or longer inseam. The seat was received in January directly from Corbin, the backrest was purchased used in May. Asking $600 OBO for both plus actual shipping. Retail on the seat is $594 and the backrest is $229.

Here's some pics off and on the bike:

man, I JUST ordered that exact seat, except I didn't get the backrest or studs and the flames will be stitched in green thread. I went to corbin in Daytona and took one for a test ride, very comfortable. Someone will get a good deal, thats a good price.

I rode it for 6 months, and took a 1600 mile trip up to Lake George and Laconia for bike weeks. I found it definitely more comfortable than the stock seat (junk IMHO) but it just sets me too far back, even with the bar risers, to get real comfortable. I bought a Mustang with the backrest to replace it and found that much more suited to "short guys" like myself! I was able to remove the risers and it fits me like a glove now.

Yes, it will fit in the rear as well as the front. There is a receiver in both locations.
