But, do you plan to do 1K Mike days? I've done 200 mile days on the stock seat with no complaints.

You don't need a softer seat, you need a harder arse.

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of it's victim may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated, but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." - C.S. Lewis

Yeah that's true, the Corbin is a very good looking seat. And actually I like the comfort of a Corbin but not on this bike, I feel cramped, plus it didn't fit right on the bike.

And I was thinking on taking a trip  from Sacramento to LA, its not 1000 miles but if you count all the idiot LA drivers it feels like a thousand miles.

thanks, Mark
