Stop hating on short people ๐๐๐๐๐i have no choice. Im asian๐๐๐๐๐
As a 4โ9โ who loves sport bike, Iโll just stick to my R25 and hoping that someday there will be a sport bike that I can flatfoot ๐
The Himalayan 450 is so ugly though
I'm 5'3 and I'm still getting a motorcycle
Hank Hill's dad……nice
Is yamaha R3 good when Iโm 5โ2?
Yeah I needed this . I've wanted a bike since I was a kid now that I'm 20 and make my own money now so I just got off the phone with my dad who is one of my voices of reason . And was told to do research so here I am wanting a bike and browsing the internet
As a short king, if you were to giveaway an Indian Scout Bobber, I would definitely join in on the membership and and buy merch for it lol
Given away over the years? Man…shoot. Where was I? LOL
Appreciate the video ๐
Iโm 5โ5โโ, all torso no legs! Less than 28โโ inside leg. Riding for 11 years so far. Itโs not all about seat height although thatโs a start. Itโs also about the size of your feet and your ass (e.g. how wide are you) the width of the seat and how far your legs have to go out and around the bike before they hit the floor. You can often also get lowering kits, lower suspension and take a bit of padding / width out the seat if you find a good upholsterer, and Iโve had half an inch added on the bottom of my riding boots. Ive sat on several of the bikes in this list and my feet still waggle in the air even on side stand. I owned a Honda Rebel but found that my back was the suspension (ouch!), and the handling round corners was poor and it rusted very quickly. Tried a Himalayan (lowered seat and suspension) but build quality was poor and it conked out. I also owned a 1990s VFR 700 that had a lowering kit, took padding out the seat etc and could do the balls of my feet and loved it. I also owned a NC750, lowering kit, lowered suspension and some padding out the seat – awesome and vastly underrated bike that holds all its weight down low and Iโd strongly recommend it for a shorter rider. Modifying bikes can affect the handling so you need to keep an eye on that, but the VFR and NC750 still handled perfectly. Also, whereโs the Vulcan on this list? In its standard form itโs very suitable. Donโt rule out the classics as well, you can get a lot of bike and fun for your money!
I have some physical problems im 5.1 so i guess ill go with one of deez
Cb500 F
zelensky is Not a King
Gsxr 600
this video has made me feel even shorter. I sat on a few 31 inch bikes and I could not reach the floor ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ
Iโm 4โ10 my height definitely held my back from wanting to learn to ride. But maybe Iโll give it a try since there are more options in todayโs market.
Looking to buy my first bike (CB125R or MT-125) and I'm 5'5 (1.68m) and I struggle to stay in there with both of my feet fully on the ground. I'm kind of insecure on going for any of these and turning my head to Suzuki GSX S125A. Yikes…
WOW, a salesman literally tried to sell me a Sportster 883 today. wild
Can you make a video for us with 3rd legs? Thank you Iโm 5โ12โ on all three ๐ฎ
I am 4'10 it suit for me?
hehe Vertically Challenged hehe
You missed the Indian FTR. It may just be the lowest mid-tier motorcycle at about 30 inches and is quite powerful (and loads of fun to ride).
Im fun size Bucko! ๐ข
I donโt like the look of cruisers thatโs the problem
Ill stick with my much hated milk toast bike. Im having alot of fun on it.
iโm 4โ11 am i cooked or is it possible
I'm 4'6 which one would fit me the best i don't really care about how fast it is
How come people who still need help getting the cookies off the top shelf dont get govt assistance? Feels like a blatant oversight to me.
People are often surprised how I can easily handle kawasaki Vulcan when taller ones are initially intimidated
Im vertically handicapped.
thanks, I hate it
What about a Harley Davidson ST or Road Glide ST
5'1" getting my first bike in nine hours. Your videos have been very helpful, if only y'all were Ohio based
I'm a 5'5" male with a 27 inch inseam. Dang short legs! But I ride a 2018 Suzuki SV650, height plays a small part in actually riding. The only time height matters is at stops where my 6'3" brother in law proceeds to laugh at me for tippy toeing my bike.
Once again, like many reviews, you left out the Kawasaki Vulcan 900 which also has a low seat. Yes, it is heavier than the ones you mentioned, but it's also one that can take you beyond the "new rider" category so you aren't left buying another motorcycle later.
