Does anyone know if i can get a raised seat for a 95 M600? I've seen plenty on here about lowered seats but nothing on raised ones.

The main reason for this is i'm on the tall side and end up a bit folded up on the bike, plus i was hoping for a bit more padding too.

Cheers,

Shandy

Not sure about raised seats but I've got a standard seat from a 94 M600 with the covering on the pillion seat damaged. If you could be bothered with foam sculpting and recovering you might be able to customise it?

Ta for the offer, that was the back up plan to get the seat on the bike re-done if nothing was avaliable. Looks like ill be doing this as i'm guessing from the lack of relpy's there ain't nothing out there for what i want.

Already got me a set of those fitted ta, they work great and solved one problem as i'm the same height, you don't feel so much like your on a mini-moto when you put your feet down.

The reason i'm after a higher seat is to unfold my lanky legs a touch for a bit more comfort when going along.

Cheers anyway.

Theres a Corbin comfort seat gives you extra room.

For about £80 you can have your seat rebuilt and sculpted. Theres a place on the old road out of Stroud to Stonehouse did a Suzuki fir me recently for only £45.
Zimbo will have their name if you contact him and its local for you too.

Thanks Duncan.

After looking on the interweb at the Corbin seats they look good and should be just the thing, but at just under £200 i'll be sending Zimbo a PM for the place down the road to see what they can do.

Cheers,

Hi Shandy...sorry, I should have asked if you already knew about that. Please let me know how you get on with the seat though...It sounds like something I'd be really interested in.

Also thanks for the feedback on the risers...can't wait to get them fitted.
