[QUOTE="mdisher, post: 628496, member: 2724"] Heat is subjective... The FJR (Gen II's even) put out some heat but nothing like my old ZX11 did. I'd suggest some good riding boots and pants. Shorts aren't going to help you much in a get off. With good boots covering your shins and decent pants you will only feel it when you're stopped at a light. As long as you're moving it's a non-issue. As for shorter seats you don't have a lot of options. Corbin's seat is 'lower' but wider, some say because it's wider they can't flat foot the bike. I think the Sargent seat in the lower position is lower than the stock seat but not by much. You can lower the bike as a whole with different dog-bones. Search, they aren't expensive. -MD [/QUOTE]
