vhooda Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 Hello there, I am 6'2" tall and I fell cramped on my Tracer 700. I think this model is not available in the US but essentially the same bike with longer swing arm. I am thinking for lowering the foot pegs by about 2 cm atleast. Can you suggest some brands where I can look up and buy. There are a few available on ebay UK but shipped from China. I have standard seat as I have ample padding on by butt cheeks . I do not mind ordering from US but UK is preferable or China if it is the right stuff for the bike... Many Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbo10 Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 I think if it was me I would be raising the seat with extra padding (wouldn't pegs tend to scrape if lowered?) 2 Just do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vhooda Posted January 31, 2020 Author Share Posted January 31, 2020 I live in the UK and what seat will I get to raise the height by about 2 cm? Is the Comfort seat from Yamaha be any good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbo10 Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 (edited) I modded the seat with bespoke exrra padding. I added about 30cm height but my aim was greater comfort. You could achieve similar with your local upholsterer. PS Comfortable it is; a thing of beauty it is not...! PPS Sorry that's my Rebel, but the 07 looks the same.

vhooda Posted January 31, 2020 Author Share Posted January 31, 2020 Great Job! I do not have any local upholster... I need to send the seat by post and that will prove to be expensive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbo10 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 (edited) I have come across this on another forum. It might not give you enough thickness but with the addition of foam sheet underneath it might. I have no idea if it would fit your bike, but it does look interesting. I quite fancy it with water filling. For google (US): "HOMMIESAFE Air Motorcycle Seat Cushion Water Fillable Cooling Down Seat Pad" This is the link for amazon uk: HOMMIESAFE Air Motorcycle Seat Cushion Water Fillable Cooling Down Seat Pad,Pressure Relief Ride Motorcycle Air Cushion Large for Cruiser Touring Saddles (Black): Amazon.co.uk: Sports & Outdoors Shop at Amazon.co.uk for HOMMIESAFE Air Motorcycle Seat Cushion Water Fillable Cooling Down Seat Pad, Pressure Relief Ride Motorcycle Air Cushion Large for Cruiser Touring Saddles (Black) : Sports & Outdoors.
