I found one picture by doing

I found one picture by doing a search of the forum and another picture on the Yahoo forum. I don't think these are the 4 gallon tanks (4.5??), however.

Sprung?

The Corbin /2 saddle is pretty and leather. Both nice.

But it does not appear to be sprung. That is the beauty of the Denfeld and Pagusa saddles. Riding a /2 the sprung saddle is important to me as it doesn't have the world's most advanced suspension.

tank size?

Would the profile of the tank shown in the pics about this seat be the same as the standard tank with the side tool box?
I sent a message to corbin and they said if it is a larger tank than shown it would'nt fit.

any info would be helpfull and thanks
Kurt

None of the pictures shown so

None of the pictures shown so far display the small (standard) tank. They all have the sport tank. (The bike with the Vetter fairing is mine. You can see that same picture in the VBMWMO member galleries under "Jon's Survivor," and a squashed version appears in the thumbnail to the left of this message.)

I've never seen a Corbin seat paired with the smaller tank, It might work, but if I were you, I would want to be sure before making the investment. Jeff is right, the Corbin is not sprung and it is quite firm. Still, I like mine much better than the Denfeld solo it replaced. It was custom fitted for me at the Hollister factory.

Thanks for the reply. Just my kind of luck they would make it for the tank I dont have. Kind of why I dont gamble much either.

Thanks very much
