You’re lucky to have both. I would send one out for a rebuild for comfort. Keep the original height and make it comfier.

He needs to keep it low for his midget stature.

In a few years it will be considered  a antic motorcycle..I plan to keep it running for has long has I can...who knows maybe someday in the future some bike collector might offer a fair offer for it...and it would be preserved for ever..that's the only way I'd consider letting it go...for it to be in a bike museum...

It’s a nice bike, but usually they don’t value the shorter version though.

I think..in my mind anyway the o4 are special...these standards were actually taller than the following years including all of the S models...
