It looks completely different...

First photo shows Corbin with red trim, last photo shows Seth Laam seat which is much better for me than the Corbin and 5 x better than stock, I could only last 1 1/2 hours on stock seat.

Good deal. You definitely out did me at 1.5hrs on the stock. I picked up a pre-owned K&H Med from a member and although it's an improvement I could still use more. I do have an AirHawk and sheepskin for different levels of improvement.

As you can tell, I'm partial to your former color scheme.

Another helpful piece was gen mar risers that raised me up 1 inch and back 1 3/8.
I’ve since switched to Roxx 2 inch pivoting risers.
A more upright position took the weight off my arms and let me sit more upright.
You can just make them out on my last photo.

Yup, Los Bravos...

I I I I I, I'm feeling blue.

Missed it by 2.

Any binding or re-routing with cables or an easy install?

No problem at all with Roxx 2 inch pivoting risers.
Those coupled with taller K &H or flat Seth Laam seat totally transform the comfort range potential.Shy
