They're in Jacksonville, about 2 and a half hours away, so even by UPS, the thing oughta be here tomorrow. Funny - ridin' to work today, as my nards were sliding into the tank, I was thinkin' "Gee, it sure would be nice to have a different seat."

Anybody else have theirs yet?

No, didn't get in on the preorder. Should have mine in 7-10 days. Looking forward to it as the Triple seat is the worst of the 8 bikes I've owned and the dozen more I've spent considerable time on.

I was on the pre-order list and was able to order mine on May 24th and they stated it should take two weeks because I did some custom modifications. (Ordered the CarbonFX with no accent welt, adjusted the look of the passenger portion, and had them not install the holders for the cowling screws- since I use a seat bag). The best part was no charge for the mods!

Did anyone else order any mods.

Hopefully they will send it out on about the 7th.

UPS tracking - a good thing or not? Man, the thing's due today and I can't wait. I got the Carbon FX on accounta I did not even wanna imagine the mung that would build up in the griptex.

UPS is weird - sometimes I get packages mid-day, but the guy in brown has dropped off packages after 7:30 some evenings.

Like Tom Petty said - the waiting is the hardest part.

I made this offer on another thread, but it kinda died out so I'll give y'all another chance. I pre-registered for the introductory discount, but I'm gonna take a pass on this seat and wait to see what the Corbin looks like. My registration number is up for grabs to the first person that wants it. I don't know if it's transferable or not, but it saves you $40 so it's worth a shot.
