They are kind of tall. But if you are tall, you might like it that way. Or you can call and ask them about making a lower one. I'm happy with mine.

I'm satisfied with my Corbin, but I didn't really have a big problem with the stock seat.

I've had mine for about 4,000 of my 20,000 mi and really like it. I find it much better than stock. I'm 6' and weigh 200 lbs. One day last week I rode four hours straight without discomfort. Could probably go longer, but I like to stop and rest. The concern I had at first was sliding around on the leather, but I cured that with some rubber non-skid from the galley.

Loving mine, 400 miles a day with no but burn. The other great part is the back rest, no other aftermarket saddle maker has this unique feature.
