A few days ago I purchased a nearly new GT off a fellow forum member. It was plain to me that after 100 miles it was not what I was looking for. MY bike is 3 weeks old and the stock seat is really not an option. IN a effort to make the stock seat/riding position work I bought the handlebar wedges and lowering pegs form Murphs Kits. I also bought a Shad SH50 and C14 mount and love that, I can now do Pizza runs.
I had the handlebar wedges on while testing the seat. I will give my specifics so as to explain what probably was not working. I am 5'9'' but have a 32" inseam. So this means a short torso. I am glad I decided to try the seat without the wedges because sans wedges for me is perfect. I am puzzled how such small differences could have such a big impact on comfort and even reach to the ground. The GT seat has a sweet spot that is slightly forward and slightly taller than stock that makes the stock peg position comfortable to me. CAn't wait to put some miles on.
Next step is Throttlemeister, Aeroflow shield and RKA tankbag.
