Thanks both of you. I'm often working RACQ on weekends and at TAFE weekdays but sometime we'll get together Nate and try a swap. About once a month I visit my son in Brisbane and will contact you then. And diesel, do you run standard gearing? Your long range fuel tank explains why you need a better seat! You could lap Australia with that.

Gidday Diesel. I hope they don't call you that because you filled your bike with diesel by mistake! Hey I'm 6'4" and have a low seat. I put a sheep skin on which helped and some foam under that which helped more. Do you reckon anyone with a good high seat would do a swap? Other than that and a non working fan thermo switch (I've fitted a manual switch) the bike and I are settling in well together. Col

Thanks Brock, might be too late for that. I'm an RACQ patrol man some weekends and have come across this on a bike so he's definitely not the first. I thought all these were responses to another topic but they seem to have started a new one. I don't really know how to use these forums.
