Anyone had a lowered bike?

[Mark YPVS]

my fazer had a lowered seat and it was painful on my dodgy knees as they were bent more (im 5ft 6) I fitted a standard seat and it was much better however my brother in-law also has dodgy knees (and the same height) found the standard seat caused him painful knee joints so he got a lowered seat which solved the pain, but his rear shock seems very hard so im going to soften it next week as the bike doesn't squat at all when he sits on it ( 10 st )
I think the Fazer is wide to sit on as opposed to being a tall bike as I can flat foot on my R1 easily but not on the Fazer,
I think if the bikes comfy for you lower dog bones would be a good bet?
