The seat height is 810mm, lower than an R1200GS unless the GS has lowered suspension, maybe. If "standard bike" means roadsters and retros as offered by Yamaha, Honda and Kawasaki, it's taller for sure. It towers over most HDs. But many folks express the seat height is inconvenient sometimes. Maybe that's why it leans more than the others; that makes mounting easier if you're not using a footpeg to help.

I have a 1250GS and a 1250RT.  The k75 seat height is between the 2.
I like higher seats.  More comfortable for
My knees.

Is that a Givi top case platform on the cowl? If it is, how long has it been mounted on there?
