1100GS lower seat?

[sloukes]

Just got my 1st GS (cheers Tugs) , a 1994 R1100GS. The seat is on its lowest setting and I can just get both toes on the ground.
What are the options for the vertically challenged ? I'd like to be able to get both feet on the floor but dont really want to take lumps of foam out of the seat. I have heard of using a different torque arm to lower the back end but am unsure as to what this would do to the geometry?

Cheers

Steve

Thanks Daithi

More suggstions than you can shake a stick it so that didnt really help!
I'll take a look at the rear shock adjustment though.

I've got

a Touratech seat like the one in this thread if you are interested. I think it is the lower height model but it is thinner and narrower so it is easier to get yer legs out. If you are interested I will send you a couple of pics.

Vertically Challenged!!

You can have the seat scooped out by up to an inch which will help alittle or Revs Racing are able to reduce the height of shocks (this will not affect there performance)
