    transalp seat

    Hey guys and gals,

    Does anyone have a standard transalp seat that they would like to swap for a lower one? I have an immaculate 04 model with a genuine honda low seat, but I am 6' 5" and I find the standard one much more comfortable.

    hey,

    even though I have a seat to offer (too far away though) I dont think the normal seat will do you much good. I am 6'2 myself and I had one of my seats redone. The problem with the seats in general is, that they are far too elastic (sorry for my horrible english... working on it). If I was you I would rather invest some 50 quid or so and have your own seat modified to your needs. Much better result. Your bum is gonna thank you for that. Exspecially on long journeys.
