Thought I would mention this as it may help someone. I didnt realise this could be done:
Im 6ft 5 and weigh around 125kgs and although I find the GSA comfortable I have always felt the seat feels like its leaning forward. So I read somewhere that you can set the seat to high in the front and low in the back, which i have now done (after a year of owning the bike  :patch:). This has made a huge difference to the comfort and I feel like I am sitting level on the bike now. Does anyone else have their seat set like this?

Now with my weight being slightly ( :lol8:) heavier than the norm i have now set my suspension to one person plus luggage. Does my logic make sense and has anyone else done this or should i just leave it on the standard setting?
If not what suspension setting do you ride daily on?

Thank you
