F800GT Low Seat

[oldcarman]

Hi all. I would like to get a low seat for the GT. Probably one inch lower than the standard 31.5 inch seat height. Does anyone have experience with aftermarket low seats for the GT? On other bikes I have used Corbin.

Sargent makes good seats. Had them for my S1000R and RT. Had the Sargent low seat for my RT, but although it was an inch lower that stock, it was a bit wider so it wasn’t as low as I had hoped when seated. The BMW low seat for the RT felt like it was made of wood. Most aftermarket seats are returnable if you are unhappy.

I had a Corbin on my 650CS and loved it. I tried a second hand one on my GT, but found it too tall. They'll make one with a 'nose job' if you ask. It makes the front narrower and helps with getting you flat footed.
