I cannot comment on the corbin as I have never used one. I can comment on the other issues though, having lowered my bike and using the gel seat.

I find the gel seat a huge improvement over the stock one and have used this on 600km journeys with no butt burn, so yes it works (for me at least) and it is considerably cheaper than most other options.

Lowering the bike has no adverse effects on handling. I have managed to touch the hero blobs down but have not decked out anything else, so on -road I do not have any clearance issues. I dont do offroad, so cannot comment on that area but doubt this would have much impact either.

Yes the sidestand needs to be cut down or an alternative found. I have no plans to raise the height again so do not find the one way operation a problem. I did not cut down the centre stand. Yep it takes a bit of a knack to get her onto the stand but not a problem.
