Pottsy.......best bet.... (after you've been to specsavers mate) is to bob your bike into the nearest dealers/go to a meet where there is an older model Uly and try swapping them. Personally I dont think the subframe arrangement was changed and an earlier seat should be ok.....BUT ITS BEST TO CHECK!

Thanks for that...do we know each other ????regards potts

Not that i'm aware of me old cock....

I thought the seat base and therefor fitting was indentical

09 seat is sculpted and lower for normal length inside leg

If it does and u still want one I've got a lower seat which is surplus due to my missus's legs still not being quite long enough to ride mu uly ha ha.

So you brought a Ulysses knowing that your good lady could not ride it

Yea but plan has backfired a bit cos I now need a high seat to stop her riding my Griso!!

I like the Griso, never seen one on the road though

At least you have two bikes to choose from

have pm you regards potts

There are 3 seats for the Uly;

First is the "standard" and highest seat fitted from day 1 of Uly production. Available in black or black and yellow. Probably the most comfortable seat if you've got the legs for it!

Next, comes the "low seat" or accessory seat which is about 2" lower, available in black or black and yellow.

Finally is the "'07 seat", so called because it first made it's appearance on the '07 Uly and then on the XT. It's an approximate half-way house between the other two seats regarding height and it is more cut-away towards the front of the seat. Some say this is the most comfortable of all.

Mine has the standard "I wish I could reach the floor" seat.

It is without doubt the most comfortable bike seat i've ever had.
