Hello folks.
bought my Sv650s the other day (2002 curvey model). I'm looking to fit a lower seat. I'm 5'5 and my inside leg is 28/29'. I can flat foot with one foot. riding isnt really a problem but moving the thing around is so dam hard! i'd also have greater confidence if it was lower. I reckon 2cm lowered would be perfect. I've had a look at the below Suzuki seats- i've called up and they tell me the seats are just for the pointy. I'm not keen on getting dogbones to lower the bike. If anyones got experience of gettng a lower seat i'd love to hear your input; do he below linked seats work on curvy? is there an after market seat (in the uk and that doesnt cost a fortune)??? ![]() http://www.suzuki-gb.co.uk/accessori...=onroad&search[range]=&search[model]=&search[year]=&search[keyword]=sv+lower+seat&offset=0 (the product at the bottom of the list) http://www.suzuki-gb.co.uk/accessori...=onroad&search[range]=&search[model]=&search[year]=&search[keyword]=sv+lower+seat&offset=0 |

pointy seats don't go with curvy ones I'm afraid.
You could get your seat sent to this guy http://www.tonyarcher.co.uk/ he's very good with seats, he would probably be able to make your current one fit your requirements. Comes personally recommended. Although I don't have lowered ones. Don't worry too much about just one foot flat, you'll soon get the knack.
