  • Seat with Backrest other than Corbin?

    Does anyone know of any other seat with a Passengers backrest, made for the Kat.
    The only one I've found is Corbin's "Gunfighter & Lady with Backrest". Cost $474 Total with shipping.
    2006 Black N Gold Katana 750.

    Break it into two purchases to take it easier on your wallet. $220 for the basic seat isn't bad.

    Most of them will give you serious sticker shock when you look up prices starting at $500 and ranging well upwards from there...

      2 bad an 1100 seat won't fit. I would sell you one exactly like in the pic....backrest and all.
      I don't have a short temper. I just have a quick reaction to bullshit.

        You can occasionally find them on ebay, but they are fairly scarce. Atleast when I search for them they are.

          I Think I am just going to get it then... A local shop said they can get me the exact style I want for about $380 shipping included.

            That's odd, because shops normally get about the same pricing you do for that particular saddle, meaning that $100 discount has to be somewhere else (vinyl instead of leather? not including the seat back? etc). Be wary.
