Forgot to add that my inside leg measurement is 31.5" and I weight a tad over 60kg.
60kg ! lean and mean? lol
Want to sell your low seat?
What’s your height
@@omkarwanganekar8017I'm guessing 5f,nine inches..
I put the lower seat on my TA so that my wife would have an easier time riding it and deciding if she wanted one for herself. I left the low seat on and went for a 400-mile day ride. I'm 5'10" with a 32" inseam, 195 lbs. I was in pain by the end of the day from being too cramped. I'll never use the low seat again.
Nice job...like your style. I just purchased this seat for my TA. Liked and subbed!😎
I don't speak a good english, but I understand you well... Big thanks from France. Fred
I just got my transalp. Im short. 5'-7" and weigh about 170. I originally thought I needed the short seat but after a day riding with it I switched back to the original seat. The short seat sits you in a dip and doesn't really let you move around on the seat without eventually sliding back into this low position. Hard to explain. I had bought it for peace of mind, thinking every bit helps, but the original seat feels much better while riding.
That’s interesting, I was out today on mine with my bike rucksack for the first time and quite liked the way it sat on the higher section of the seat behind me, it took the weight off. I’m out tomorrow again for a couple of hours I might try both seats out again as I hadn’t considered your point. Thanks for watching.
As a fellow Transalp loving rider I’m glad to have discovered your feed. I’ve just received the low seat and about to try it. If you’re putting a GPS on it (which I have) DON’T get one that attaches to the windscreen assembly. It’ll shake and eventually fail. Highly recommend the SW Motech bracket which bolts to the dashboard and sits flush on top of the TFT display. Solid and exactly the right height.
Cheers,
Geoff in Tasmania
Thankyou Geoff for the tip, I am indeed looking to get a bracket shortly.
Tasmania! is that near Alaska?
Unsure why ive never seen your channel before but im glad I did, great presentation and funny to boot. Unsure why Honda didnt make the lower seat in blue as thats part of the white/blue scheme you have along with the gold wheels. You've earned my sub.
I personally think the black seat looks better. Cheers
You're awesome Mr
Black seat looks really nice. Although I would say that because I've got a Cool Cover on my original so it already looks pretty similar. 👍
Hi, I really thought I would miss the blue seat but no! That black works well. Thanks for watching.
Hey buddy, I always enjoy your content, you know, it’s really ironic, we buy these very expensive bikes, just like the Harley I just bought last year, which, as you know, is a very expensive bike, because it is a touring bike, that seat was the absolute Horrendous item that had to be changed ASAP. It’s all I could do to ride 50 miles on that bike, to me that is strange as much as you pay for these things and you still have to put money into something that should have been great from day one, anyway enjoy your video. Look forward to the next, take care. Rob U.S.
Thanks Rob
looks nicer with the black seat
Better than I thought it would.
Another great vid !!
how did you find your new screen, did it cut down on the Wind buffeting ?
Hi yes the screen did cut it down a bit not perfectly but definitely better. Thanks for watching.
I think there is way to lower transalp with linkage under the rear shock? I noticed this the other day on my bike
Let us know how to do that please. 👍
5' 10" but the important things with the seat height is... what's your inside leg neasurement?
I'm 5' 9" but only with a 30" inside leg and find I struggle with a lot of the adventure style bikes
Hello Dave, yes you're right, bit of a school boy error on my part, I did forget to mention it. My inside is 31.5", Im going to follow the video up with another regarding height and my body weight which is 60kg and also the preload on the bike and see how it sits with luggage as well. thanks for watching and the feed back.
Low seat has less cushion, do you notice any difference when you ride for a long trip?
Hi, no not really but I don’t weigh much so that may be a factor?
when the video with all the mods?
Hi, I’ve done a video on my channel showing the mods I ordered with the bike and two I did myself. More mods to come.
Hello Errol, could you tell me what is your height? Many tanks in advance! Best regards
Hi yes I’m 5’10” inside leg is 31.5 inches thanks for watching.
@@wright-adventure thank you
What is your height
Standard seat height is so small there's no reason to bing it lower even if u're 140cm tall.
Better idea to invest in skills.
With respect ..nonsense ! What 'skill' exactly make your legs longer ?? I have a 29"
inside leg and often a need lower seat , bikes are made to fit average people if you are much shorter than average you need to customise them to fit ...simple.
No matter what your skill level as you age your body naturally loses muscle strength and age can also effects your balance, its a biological fact ! I've been riding for over 45+ years competed in enduros,mx and road racing and numerous advanced rider skills training Owned over 30 motorcycles from 125 mx bikes to 1000 adventure tourers.Lower seat height is important not only for mature riders but also smaller framed riders as it provides more stability and therefore more confidence !
Correct seat height is paramount for riders .
Watch some videos of top off road riders competing in enduro ….they rarely fall over ….because when the going gets really tough …they dab a foot or both feet with proper boots on .
Go research it
you must be very small if that is tall for you.
5ft 10
another factor is that I only weigh 62kg, not so much is taken up on the suspension when I sit on it.
Great channel and vid ...but you committed my pet hate 😵💫😮😡😡👎👎
Your height bears NO relation to inside leg measurement which is the critical thing with seat height !!! Schoolboy error !! 😊 Seriously great video though.
Ahhh. Ya I know I did forget, I’m actually going to do a follow up on it as I want to see how my body weight effects the spring load as I’m only 60kg so I may adjust it and also see how it sits with a full set of camping equipment. Thanks for watching and the feed back.
