I've been to Oslo. Most of you are!!
Your wrong, Oslo is the same as London , Karachi or Mombasa,due to all the new imigrants,and refuges.
We are now a multicultural country according to the politicians.The blonds lives in the country sides.

Oh, yes, I agree with that....
What's the thing with the statues in Frogna park. All a bit weird.

agree with that ,it's a tourist trap,stone figures,by Gustav Vigeland.
I rather look at paint drying.
Art for me is a Ducati or Mv Augusta,and some of the old painters.(1400-1600)AD

Hi
Vent to my dealer today to sit on my new bike with the low seat,lowered option,is says 790mm,did measure it was 820mm.
He coul not understand why,after much trying and talk,started up the bike,the Esa said one rider +luggage,the bike came down a little, put the Esa in one rider no luggage and it went down to 790mm,But at that setting it seems you only get one setting on the dampers which is Hard.
To early to be 100% sure but something to find out before you buy.

From page 161 0f the bikes manual
Front-seat height 850...870 mm, Without rider at unladen weight
with front seat, low OE 820...840 mm, Without rider at unladen weight
with lowered suspension OE 790...810 mm, Without rider at unladen weight
Rider's inside-leg arc, heel to heel 1870...1910 mm, Without rider at unladen weight
with front seat, low OE 1820...1860 mm, Without rider at unladen weight
with lowered suspension OE 1770...1810 mm, Without rider at unladen weight
You can only get down to 790 with the lowered suspension. However my dealer said that the seat is much narrower at the front so the new low seat (820) feels lower than the old one.

Not true, you get the full range Soft, Normal, Hard on the Lowered Suspension option in 1P no Luggage setting.
One thing I did notice today is that when in motion both feet are a good 6" off the ground.

Thats right my mistake,but yesterday I measuerd the seat hight at 1P setting,my friend holding the bike horizontal 100%
I measuerd the seathight to be 810mm dosent seems to get lower than that.
Can you try to do the same ant tell me the measurment.
I notice that when riding my bike I can see above the cars in front,feesl much higher than my 2012 gs.
