Was I fool to buy it..?.your looking at 1700 euros for and intact black 950...the bike holds some sentimental value to me but for that price I just couldn't let it go..I think it's a great bike for the price ...and I'm sure the value of these things will only go up..honestly think this is a Collectors bike in the near future..

We already thought you were a fool before you bought it.

Stop navel gazing with your buyers remorse.  Not a massive amount of money it you want it why not buy it, especially if it means something to you.    I can think of things that make you a fool but not this purchase.  😉

It’s very cool, looks better than the other two bikes you own put together.

Pretty sure my 640 Adventure had a taller seat and I had an even taller seat made for that.

I'm not 100% sure but I think the 04 were all tall...think they lowered the seat height following years...

BOBONELEG might be able to answer that.

When the 950 came out, wasn’t the S the taller version?

 Test rode one around Porto streets, I had only been on a Transalp 650 so far and it was on a full exhaust as most test ride bikes are. It was not a Transalp 650 :classic_laugh:

This  is and S model...from  what I've been able to dig out...the 950 s has the same seat height has the 990 R..
