I have been thinking about that one as well.
I would suggest getting others to let you try different ones to see which one you like the best. Where are you located?
+1 million......this reply needs to be made a STICKY. I am 70 inches tall, 180 lbs with a 30-in inseam and have been riding for over 20 years. My butt was perfectly happy with the stock seat but was happier with a Corbin and the Suz gel seat.....which I got to own because the used bikes I got already had em (Corbin on 01 and 08, Suz Gel on current 09).
As mentioned, seat preferences are personal. Unfortunately, it's difficult to test them all. I had a bike a few years ago that I tried 7 different seats on. I would buy a used one, try it for a while, then sell it and buy another. It was time consuming, but I didn't see a better way to come to my own conclusions about "best." I was surprised that several of the expensive seats that people swore by were not all that great... in my opinion.
Good luck in your quest.
Having said all that... I have a Corbin on my Gen 1 and would not trade it.

ball z has the comfortable seat i have ever sat on and it lowers u down in the saddle about 1 1/2 real soft cushion and leather
Hear, hear. I have 3 so far, and decided to get a 4th yesterday. ???
I have a long-distance seat, a bling-bling seat, and an everyday seat. Plus about to pull the trigger on an Air Hawk + LDComfort shorts combo for the 1000MileDay.com ride.
I just received a Corbin for mt Gen II. It arrived yesterday and have not been able to try it out. I'll post my results later in the week. The only part of me that causes me to take a riding break is my butt. Other than that I could ride non-stop. I am hoping the Corbin seat helps.
Bret, the Zero Gravity Latigo seat was a bit of a pleasant surprise. Didn't know what to expect. We were the first dealer in the nation to order one for the Busa.
Here's bone stock:
Here's the Zero Gravity Latigo - first test fitting
Out on the road traveling. Surprisingly comfortable. One of the other members that bought one from us when they first came out a couple months ago promptly did an Iron Butt ride on one - 1000 mile day. For those that like a nice clean black look, this is perfect. Not quite a corbin, but an excellent every-day seat over the stock.

I have Corbin and really happy with it. The longest ride that I've ever done was 21 hours.

I've been very happy with my Saddleman Tech gel seat for $200 with a matching cover for the passenger seat. Love my Tobin around town but when the stock wheels and PR3's go on so does the Saddleman. I put over 1500 miles on the suzuki gel seat and it never broke in one bit as far as I could tell-stayed hard as a rock! Yet some people love 'em, go fiqure. Guess it all depends on the individual azz. Here's some shots of it ready for an Iron Butt ride a week ago-earned my BunBurner Gold, 1500 miles in 24 hours.
