Hi once again,
I've been drooling over the Corbin solo seat, the one with the smuggler. I can't afford the smuggler trunk right now, not even sure I need it as I have the GIVI trunk already, but it does look good when riding solo I think. Anyway, back tothe seat. I like the looks of it much better than the dual canyon sport seat and also like the fact that it retains theversatility of the factory hight adjustments and rear seat. I'm thinking of ordering it soon, just not quite sure if I should get it heated or not. I do live in WY and ride in the winter months, but I've neverreally noticed my butt gettting cold. It's always my feet and arms that are cold, but maybe I just don't know what I am missing.

How many here have a heated seat, and do you find that it is much better than a non-heated one? Is it something that was nice when you first got it and now you never use, or do you wonder how you ever got aong without it?

Thanks for the input,
George

George,
The heated seat seems to help keep legs and feet warmer, very theroputic.
Also, the smuggler holds more than you would expect.
Best of luck, DonF

I've got a Russell seat with a bunz warmer and it's great on those days where it's a bit nippy, but otherwise rideable. In your neck of the woods, it would seem highly desireable; whereas in Seattle it's pretty optional.
