Correct if just a taller heel. The entire sole needs to be higher. My current boots are worn out and due for replacement but kinda similar to
these. They allow for the foot peg, some height and traction. Have worked great for the past 2.5 yrs
Absolutely correct on seat width, GSXR's are more narrow then other bikes I sat on, ie: F4I. Another good pointer for twisted to keep in mind.

You may want to cus some of the seat padding down and/or narrow the front of the seat so your feet can touch a bit sooner. Remember it's not just seat height, but width as well.
