I might be. When I bought the bike it had the standard, mid-height seat, but I needed the tall seat. When the tall seat arrived it was shipped to me. I asked, but if the dealership wanted the mid-height back and they did not. So I ended up with two seats. I had an after market seat made using the mid-height seat and the new seat fits me great. So, yes, I have a tall seat hanging around.

If you two work anything out, I have a low seat that I am in need of swapping for either a mid or high. My low seat only has about 2,500 miles on it. I'm in central NC and am close to DrD. I would be willing to pay shipping for both seats.

FYI

I've already made arrangements to have a custom seat made, so my seat is no longer availble.

Peter,

I have a mid and would love to try the high.
Would you be interested in a swap, or even a sale?

Send me a pm if you're still in the market.

Thanks,
Oliver
