That's the fancy one that's more like a single rider seat but can accommodate a passenger if needed.

No, the 85 had a seat different from the 86 and later bikes.

That saddle is very low. I have a Corbin and it is much higher. Only buy this one if you have short legs. Otherwise your knees will be really scrunched up while riding.

Hi,

Are you saying the Corbin Gunfighter is very low?

I do have a 30" inseam and I"m looking for a lower seat than stock.

Mike, I have 2 of them and they are both different. This may be a low saddle. Best thing to do might be to contact the seller for more info.

I have the rumble seat version of the gunfighter.   It is not that low.   Maybe a little lower than stock or dual canyon.   With a 32 inseam,  I can just flat foot it.  It is pretty comfortable.

I bought the Corbin that was listed on CL. for my 86 K100RS Turbo.

I will have the seat from the Turbo for sale shortly.

It is in excellent shape.

Don, Any idea what the turbo adds to the power (torque/HP)? 

Also, at what rpm does it kick in?

Thanks

I'm not Don, but this has many of the specs. Keep reading down through it; there are more details under the heading 15 Years: The Good the Bad and the Ugly.

From what I read on that link, it looks like the K 100 2v w/ turbo (street version) put out about 180 HP, according to the author. That seems to be w/i the realm of possibilities.
