Took the Corbin off the bike last night.
The "tab" on the front side of the Corbin is a metal tab, unlike the plastic one of the front end of the Honda seat. Seemed like there was a little bit of room to install 2 rubber risers under the seat. So I found a couple suitable risers, each just about 1/4" tall. Nice squeeze of silicone sealant onto each of the 2 pieces and stuck them to the bottom of seat's support bumpers.
Slipped the seat back into the stock tab and it works. Fastened the 2 rear screws and I now have a Corbin with a little less front slope and still no gap. Did not take it for a ride last night to see if a 1/4" makes enough difference but I will do that a bit later today. Early doctor's appointment, followed by a meeting, then errands will occupy morning and early afternoon so the bike ride and seat test will wait until afternoon.
