'19 S1000 XR Tall Seat
Finding a seat I like for this motorcycle has been difficult, I think that the shape of the frame and location of the gas tank creates a very restricted area for seat manufacturers to design a comfortable seat. Standard height seat have to have a deep bowl shape at the seat to keep the seat at around 32" high.
This Tall Seat gives me the shape that's comfortable for me, and still, I can reach the ground fairly well with my 32" inseam. The seat is not exactly flat but it is more flat then the OEM seat or the Wunderlich Std Height seat. And that's just what I needed!
The seat quality is great, it's built on a BMW OEM seat pan so it fits perfectly, it has similar lines as the OEM seat so it looks great on the bike.
I already have two other 3rd party seats for my XR, I am going to sell them, this one is the keeper.
