Hey all,
New to the forum and I have a quick question for you all. First of all, I wanna say that no, I'm not some newb looking for a superfast bike to go kill myself on. I rode dirtbikes and a couple street bikes for 3 years in college, and right now I ride a H-D Fatboy.
I am only about 5'5"-5'6" in height and I noticed that there are quite a few sportbikes that seem to be too tall for me. i.e. (I wasn't going to buy it, but...) I sat on a new aprilia Mille bike and I was barely on my tip toes. and the Honda XX was about the same. the CBR600f4i wasn't too bad.
I was taking a look at Ducati's and sat on (i think) a 929? 998? something like that, but that seemed a little high without moving the rear down. and I sat on a 749 that was comfy for me.
My question is this : What bikes should I be looking at height wise? I was told some don't have an adjustable ride height and I should stay away from those. Maybe I'm just nutz though, and I could be totally wrong. I figure this would be a good place to ask.
Thanks in advance, and I'm ready for all of you about to yell at me for looking at duc's and 600s and up
