Hello riders.
I just purchased my 2008 R1200RT adding to my 86 K75 and 04 R1150RT. Both my previous rides updates with a Corbin Canyon and RDL respectively. After adding 200km to my odometer, I realize long term my butt and hips are going to miss the wider saddle of the RDL.
For those who may be height challenged like me (5f6in on a good day) and who purchased a used RDL, did you find that the overall bike seat became taller? I am third owner and the previous owner could no tell me if this bike was lowered but compared to my R1150RT, I am definitely closer to flat footing on the 1200.
So as a recap, looking for a used Russell Day Long versus sending my seat down to Russell for the upgrade unless I have to. Many thanks.
