Hi just wondering if anyone had any input into buying a sightly lower than standard seat for an 07 GSA. I just need something about an inch lower.
Cheers
 
I bought my GS with a low seat (I believe they also fit the GSA), dealer said to keep until the 1st service to make sure I was happy with it.

Lots of info here on inside leg measurements, but you would be better off sitting on a showroom one to see if the difference is better.

So I kept it, as even the lower setting on the standard didn't feel right for me
I've just got used to it.:bounce1
 
I put the low Touratech / Kahedo one onto an 07 GSA I used to have. Very comfy and made the bike a bit more manageable for me.
 
I have the Wunderlich one (which may be exactly the same as Touratech :nenau)

It works very well, although can be a bit hit/miss when trying to latch it in place.

It also makes you sit slightly further forward than the standard seat alows.

Definately an improvement though :thumb2

Al :)

I've got one aswell ....... it's definately lower than the BMW Low Seat I had before and looks much nicer. For use over any distance tho I fit an Airhawk :thumb
 
The problem I find with the BMW GS low seat, Is the lack of padding. It’s like sitting on Granite:eek. So I now use the standard GS seat on the low setting on my 09 GSA.

It'll do until i can get a low Sargent seat.

The standard gs is about an inch lower than the standard gsa:confused: so I would say try a std gs seat first:thumb2
 
Kahedo High end breathable. About 1 inch lower that standard GSA seat.
Comfy too....
