    I think you will find that the seat hight varies with the forward and back. The mounting bracket is slopes so as the seat moves back it lowers and vice versa. If you see the triumph promo video it says much the same .

      Thanks! The current position is super comfy. Had a long ride this morning and no issues.

    Thank you. This helped tremendously installing fender light relocation using NRC.

    Very useful video! I just installed a new YSS adjustable shock and must remove the seat to adjust the shock preload.

    Your videos are informative two things i am looking for one is seat adjusting seat up and down
    Other one is installing auxiliary power socket you just showed after installing

    • @We-R-Racing

      The seat moves up and down a little as you move it forward or backward. The power socket was installed by the dealer. It screws into the 3 screw holes that are covered with plastic grommets and the plug for the power is just inside the side cover. I did not get that on video.

    That colorway is a knockout! ATM that is my favorite looking bike. Really tempted even tho I really don't want spokes or tube tires.

      Hey Adam. I hear ya. It's a pain to clean. But it does add to the look and feel. That's nothing though... I need to do a review and explain how crap the valve placement is. Happy biking bud

      @@We-R-Racing Yes sir....the look of the spokes is great for sure. The valve placement and that it's 90° on my Trident is great. Wish there was a Triumph option for cast wheels for the Bobber.

    In another video from a dealer, they stated that the bolt in the middle, under that cover, is a vertical adjustment bolt. All the way in is all the way at the top.
    I assume you put it where you want it, and then the two on the side are the main attachment strength. Whether that is actually valid, I do not know but that is what was presented. That video was on an older model

    • @We-R-Racing
      @We-R-Racing  13 дней назад

      Yeah I also saw that video and it is just not accurate. The forward backward adjustment does affect the height though.

      I just adjusted my seat. Thank you this was helpful. Agreed the torx under the cover does nothing for height in the version I own. 2023. And you def need to remove the tank. The torx goes higher than the tank edge.
      The bolt is super long so one could probably put washer(s)in there between the seat mount and the frame to raise the seat a little bit it . But it would lean more than raise so that doesn’t sound awesome either since it pivots on the 2 big torx from the side.
      Again thanks.

    You dont have to get the tank off, nor the seat holder bracket, you just have to use an S shaped wrench....

    • @We-R-Racing
      @We-R-Racing  Год назад +3

      Thanks. I did not have one and don't want to risk damaging the tank

  • @MrEye4get
    @MrEye4get 11 месяцев назад +1

    So the one bolt holding the seat to the frame can't be tightened to raise the seat sightly? Forward and back are simple enough.

    • @We-R-Racing
      @We-R-Racing  11 месяцев назад

      That's right. It does seem like moving it forward and backward changes the up and down

    • @We-R-Racing
      @We-R-Racing  10 месяцев назад

      Thanks for the comment. I have the same issue. Max 1 hour in that seat. Ali express sell replacement cushions for the seat that look a lot thicker with more padding. I did eventually find a happy space with my seat, where I can do an hour at a time. Adjust it 5mm at a time and go ride for a bit till you find the most comfortable spot. You can also adjust the handle bars to make your seating position better

    • @We-R-Racing
      @We-R-Racing  10 месяцев назад

      I would start by modifying the seating position and if that does not work get more padding on it. You can simulate this by just cutting a thick piece of memory foam and sitting on that for a bit.
