Have the yellow bike but any color works. An aftermarket would work also and would not have to be same a low stock but lower than an 06 standard seat. |

Are you looking for the 2006 optional Low Seat w/ gel insert? |

Yes I am. I didn't realize they had a gel insert. Is the XT seat on the 08 the same height as the 06 gel? I'm wanting to see how the handling is with the low. I can touch my feet flat but am used to sprot bikes so don't think it would be too low. |

Is the XT seat on the 08 the same height as the 06 gel? No, the XT seat is the same as the '07 stock seats for the UlyX, sort of halfway between the stock '06 and the '06 Low gel optional seat. I have a '06 Low sold pending funds, still waiting for the m/o:
If the current buyer bails you can have first dibs, other than that I'm Flea-Baying it. |

How much lower is the 06 gel than the XT? I sat on an XT so I know about what it feels like. How many $? Let me know if it sells, thanks |

I found it, XT 1.1" lower that 06 X and 06 low is 1.5" lower than stock 06 X. |

This thread may help: http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/142 838/442490.html?1237095404 I'll PM the other guy again, if he's still dragging his feet then I'll inform him that I have another interested buyer and will offer it to you. Fair enough? |

That did help. Thanks. Looks like the one I might want is the 07. I can touch the ground with the 06 but wanted a little lower for better handling. I still need one that is comfortable for longer trips. Let me know on the seat, I may still want one it to try out. I found out on seats you have to ride them for awahile before you can make a judgment on how it will work. Do you have paypal? |
