Title: What is the lowest solo seat you can get for a 1500?
Post by: DC on October 18, 2012, 07:16:38 AM
Stock Kaw, Corbin, others?

My problem is my legs are too short and I don't have good control of the bike while stopped.  Instead of having that bone surgery to make your legs longer, I figured I would avoid that pain and expense for the present and try to find a lower seat.

The Corbin is the lowest I know of........not sure how much lower you could get.  The Corbin is pretty thin.  Maybe 2" lower then stock.

If that's not enough you could lower the whole bike.  A 1500 can be lowered an inch.  Much more and the drive shaft angle becomes an issue.

All that would get you about 3" lower to the ground.

I agree with Phillip that the Corbin is the lowest and as a matter of fact I took my Corbin solo off and went with Travelhorse that I found. For me the Corbin was too low. I have the Corbin solo seat with backrest for sale under the for sale section.
