TECHNICAL MOTOBRICK WRENCHING In Remembrance of Inge K. => The Motobrick Workshop => Topic started by: leaton10 on September 19, 2015, 10:29:04 AM

I just got a pristine 95 K75 and got it rideable. It had been sitting up for 13 years.
I think it has the low seat option but am not sure. I'm about 6' and it feels cramped.
My wife is 5'5" and it fits her fine. My old K75S that I sold long ago seemed a bit more to my size.
Anyway - 3 questions
1. How can I tell if I have the low seat option?
2. If I do, what is involved in changing it?
3. Under the seat there are a couple brackets mounted to the rear fender with webbing straps. What are these for? Is there something missing?
Thanks in advance
Larry

Look here, second post:

Changing is not easy but not complicated, try to find someone with a "C" model who wants to swap high for low. Here is a thorough explanation:

No idea on the webs, sounds like custom add for soft luggage maybe? Post pics?

Thanks for the info. That about covers it. Yes I do have the low seat model.
I wondered why I had that big rubber pad and no side covers.
Actually, I like the rubber pad better - nothing to loose. The side covers, if I remember correctly, just snap on and are easy to loose.
So the tool kit is in the tail section - fortunately this bike doesn't have ABS - so no computer there to crowd things.
Again - if memory serves, the gap between the battery/computer and the rear fender is where normally
a storage compartment would go and the tool kit would normally go in there?

Yes - std (high) seat brain box has integrated tool tray / lid wheras low seat (~ 2'' lower) does not.
