R1250R seat height. Has anyone measured the seat height on a stock R1250R? The BMW spec is 32.3”. The BMW spec for the 2018 R1200R is 31.1”. Why the difference? I’m looking for a more comfortable, flatter seat. The Sargent tall for both the 1200 and 1250 is given as 32.4”, so, not tall compared to the BMW spec for the 1250.
ETA: You mention both GSA and GS in your question. The standard and low ride heights are different for those bikes. Also, I’m 6’3”, but have a 32” inseam. I could handle the regular GS with the seat in the high position, but it was a bit of a tippy-toe dance when the preload was set to high (or when I had my RDL saddle mounted).
