If you haven't already done so, you will need to remove the black bracket that was originally under the stock seat on the FJR because you can't install the Corbin seat with it still in place.

I'm 5'3" (petite) and I ride this bike just fine. It's very responsive and fun, fun, fun, especially on the twisties. :yahoo:

I scored an FJR 1300 too! Cool test :yahoo:

Hi there! Well, I’ve been down that road too. I had endoscopic carpal tunnel surgery on both hands at the same time in February 07; I did both because I didn’t want to be off my bike any longer than necessary. I am a firm believer in physical therapy. I was back on my FJR in 8 weeks but I could...

Here is my 2006 with the smooth Corbin Saddle and Smuggler Trunk.

I like the the Smuggler, but it looks like I will "split-open" trying to swing a leg over it. :blink: Hard enough now just clearing the bags on my AE. It looks high on the bike. SilverStreak It might look high only because my seat is so low. I had Corbin customize the seat to be as low...

Yes, it is a custom Corbin seat. I didn't ride in....I just told them to make it as low and narrow as possible without sacrificing comfort.
