I have the muscle seat. After I added the supercharger, the top pulley is making me sit more upright and rearward as it will hit my knee otherwise, putting a lot more pressure on my tail bone. Is there a seat that you can sit further back? I just saw that retro Hungary bike seat and makes me wish I had something like that.
 
Can't really do much to the flip without exposing more of the fuel tank. There is barely any coverage on it now.
 
twisted max. How much further would that put your butt back?
 
I can't imagine getting much more then 1" but not sure what the pan clearance is on them? I'm sure he could modify the pan to get maximum rear shift?
 
No more Maxgasser's,although that seat is back as far as possible. I can modify Corbin's but can only go as far as the gas filler.
What's your weight? Makes some difference as to how thin I can go in that area

I bought this seat of eBay. Japan webbikeworld for $360 shipped to Philippines. It sits very low and further back as does not have a big rise. Called Daytona comfort. Looks a bit like a Corbin but pillion is lower.

Also. I'd rather not bolt it on. Is it OK to leave it resting on bike like I read about on the Corbin's. Haven't had a chance to ride yet.
 
I've been riding a Corbin for many years without bolting it down. I have to because I had it redone a while back, and had the guy remove the access to the filler. Gotta take off the seat to fuel up. Trust me, the seat doesn't move when in place. Then plop your butt on it, and it definitely won't go anywhere. About the only way the seat would come loose is if you crashed and went off the bike, and at that point a loose seat would be the least of your problems.
