Yep, I can also confirm that the low seat makes a big difference. I have 29" inside leg and the standard seat in the low position was still too high. Got a low seat and found that in the low position, it was actually too low for me (maybe perfect for you) so I now have a low seat in the high po...

That was me who showed you my hub cover. I got it on eBay but it was second hand, hence the lower price.
I think the cheapest one on eBay is about £46 plus postage.

Maybe I could suggest Bournemouth again.  Then not turn up of course.  :enjoying:

My Brother inlaw joining me for the ride as well (Triumph) see you tomorrow chaps.

What do you think? Who is up for this?
