higher seats

[chad]

theres a lot of info about lowering the seat on GSs but i cant seem to find anything on a higher seat

being of the same stature as a yeti ie 6ft 7in tall

i think this would make life a little bit kinder to the ole knees on a long day in the saddle

so ideas on a post card please

You can put a bit of scrap ally (or PVC block in my case) under the front seat mounting points to raise if by about a centimetre or so. Helps more than you imagine, takes about 10 mins and costs nowt.

Corbins also feel higher, mainly cos they are a bit wider.

TT make a high seat version.

You can also lower the pegs, but not so great if you off-road.

Had the seat on my last 1150GSA modified by www.motorcycleseatworks.co.uk near Bradford. See photo which worked for me. They will make the seat any ht you want.

Looking to do the same with my 1200GSA and have bought cheap second seat off e bay which I will have modified so that I can keep the original seat for when I sell the bike.
