Question Sprint ST1050 seat height

I would like to lower the seat height on my Sprint ST1050 by about an inch or so but am not sure of how to do it. Does anyone know if there is a linkage kit or something I can purchase to do this with.

Not sure about linkages, but i do know you can have some padding removed from the seat(enough so you can touch the floor ok)

As Thunderlad says. I would speak to a qualified Triumph mechanic they should know what you can and can't do with preload etc.

Welcome to the forum btw
