Just remember when considering a used Corbin that they make custom seats too so it might not fit you or your needs. As an example, I'm average height (5'10") and a friend of mine was a head taller than me so pretty close to 7' tall. He was very cramped on his 'Wing with the original seat so he called Mike Corbin and had him do a special seat for him. At first glance it looked like the original stepped seat but it was a bit higher and the "passenger" part was only about 2" long. When I test I rode his bike I was glad it had a sidecar because my couldn't touch the ground and any passenger would have to be pretty skinny.
