Low seat??

[Mongoose]

My 2013 TTSE has an adjustable seat and being a bit of a short ar5e, I'm grateful for it. I've seen a number of 'Low seats' for sale but these appear to be the standard adjustable seat. Is there a lower sculptured seat for the TT??

There is only 1 version of the low seat as far as I know, and it was only used on the US version.

Hi Mongoose,

There are two Height Versions of the Trophy Rider Seat, each of which has two height settings :

"Standard" - which is fitted as standard for the UK / Euopean Market,
with a Seat height of 31.4" ( 800mm ) in the Low Setting or 32.3" ( 820mm ) in the High Setting.

"Low" - fitted for the US & Canadian Market,
with a seat height of 30.2" ( 770mm ) in the Low Setting, or 31.3" ( 790mm ) in the High Setting.

( Figures taken from the Owners Handbook ).

The LOW Seat is ( was ? ) available in Three versions :

• Heated Low Rider Seat                   A9708351
• Heated Low Rider Seat ( 3D Net )   A9708276
• Low Rider Seat                              T2304486

Cheers

Cheers for this, much appreciated. Decision time, buy the low seat or lower the suspension.....

I bought a Heated Low Seat for the Winter - the plan being that the extra Inch will help
when stopping on wet / slippery surfaces, being able to "Flat Foot" easier,
but I do find the lower position a little more uncomortable on my aging knees -
which have to be bent that little bit more with feet on the pegs !

If you're passing through South Birmingham anytime and wanted to try my Low Seat,
before committing to buy, you'd be welcome to !

Cheers

Cheers! I pick mine up on Wednesday with luck, so will have a better idea having ridden it home!

It's not too easy on old knees. Yeah, I know from experience, but the Trophy isn't the only one, my K1600GTL with a low seat was just as rough on the old knees.

Of all the places, in all of the world........We have friends who lived in New Braunfels. They've now moved to Schertz where we visited last year. We had a fantastic afternoon of live music at Gruehne barn one Sunday and I'd love to get over there again. A great part of the world!
