  1. As a 4โ€™9โ€ who loves sport bike, Iโ€™ll just stick to my R25 and hoping that someday there will be a sport bike that I can flatfoot ๐Ÿ˜‚

  2. 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

  3. Iโ€™m 5โ€™5โ€™โ€™, all torso no legs! Less than 28โ€™โ€™ inside leg. Riding for 11 years so far. Itโ€™s not all about seat height although thatโ€™s a start. Itโ€™s 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 Iโ€™ve 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 Iโ€™d 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, whereโ€™s the Vulcan on this list? In its standard form itโ€™s very suitable. Donโ€™t rule out the classics as well, you can get a lot of bike and fun for your money!

  4. 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…

  5. 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.

  6. 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.
