There are a few different thicknesses of saddle, all on the same base, plus corbin sergeant and other “comfort” saddles that have thicker padding so raise you up a little relative to the footpegs and handlebars.
The footrests and handlebars are often changed too, to something more sporty, more upright or just different.
The bike can be made a little taller at the front by dropping the forks in the yokes, and the same at the rear (To maintain steering geometry) by adding spacers above the wishbone ball joints (Early) or lengthening the adjustable tie rod (Later) or getting an adjustable one if not already fitted. The side stand may need to be lengthened to suit if you do this. Plenty of threads on here to describe these changes and the outcome.
All pretty easy to do provided you take it slowly in balanced steps so as not to get nasty surprises when you next ride it!
