 Hello all, Ive just bought  a 1000 varadero and my seat is  to uncomfortable. .I think it has been altered , has anybody got a corbin seat and are they comfortable
please help ... I can cover about 50 miles and my bum goes numb, this can,t normal.... thanks Geoff :'(

No it's not normal Geoff.

Quite a few of us have just ridden to Poland and I don't think anyone has complained too loudly about bum comfort.

Hi Geoff, I agree about the seat on the new model, I rode every day on the carb model vara and never had any problems with comfort, the new model has got a firmer seat which causes numb bum. I think that Red and other members who find it comfortable must have far more padding on their bums than we have.

You have to be in the saddle for about 2 hours before you get it though. Better than my Africa Twin when you got numb Nuts after 40 mins. :-[

Can't comment about the nuts but my slim unpadded bum is complaining after about an hour.
