Look at the frame where the seat mounts. There is the choice of 2 sets of mountings, one above the other for high or low setting.
I'm 5'9" and use the higher setting as it gives you more legroom on the move.

has the gs1150 got the same option or you need to change the seat?

I'm also about five feet nine but prefer the lower setting, especially on long trips when I use my Airhawk seat. I've fitted Touratech footrest lowering kits to compensate for the reduced legroom.

Don't know about 1150 seat adjustment.

The specs for the 1150 seat height appear the same as the 1100 - this taken from the micapeak website - 33.1/33.8 inches (840 / 860 mm)

As the seats are fully interchangeable - the fitting system underneath is probably the same too.
