I've found lots of posts about seat lowering but I'm 6ft and having never had a fazer before it seems very low to me. Maybe this is how they are, I wondered if anyone has any advice for me on how I could tell?
I found the Fazer to have a "low" seat position too. I'm a few inches over 6". Felt like sitting onto a Cruiser. :lol
As said above, measure the dog bones are the original length, or possibly longer (which would explain the Drop). Another thing that people sometimes do is remove padding from the Seat (short/female riders).
Resolved this situation on mine with a Jack-Up kit. Feels perfect now.
There are a few side effects of jacking the bike up however. Although the Positives outweigh the negatives (which are minor anyway).
