So ever since I bought the bike, my seat is set to the lower height adjustment. I'm short enough that it has worked well for me (5'9') but I always had the slightly uncomfortable feeling of being pushed into the tank- especially annoying to the boys on long rides. For no apparent reason, I just flipped the adjustment and low and behold the seat leveled out and was way more comfy. I took it off the center stand and still felt I had decent foothold. Apparently the height adjustment pivots the seat so it did lean forward on the low setting. Pending a test ride (I should say test stops) I may have gotten a new more comfortable seat just by flipping a thingy!! Thought I'd share.
