Well where are you tall?

I'm average height (5'8) but with ridiculously long legs ('33).

Also, what type of bike are you looking at? I have a FZ6. Very roomy IMO with nice comfy space for my legs. I have no clue about cruisers. Just sit on lots of bikes. I find that Yamaha and Kawasaki are comfortable for me but Suzuki and Honda are not.

Uhh anything other than what's on the short bike list.


If you want more specific - how new are you? Is this first bike? Second? 5th?

We talking inseam? You've actually got lots more options than the "vertically challenged" folks. I've got a 34" inseam. Love my Rockster (BMW R1150R sporty version). Seat height is 33.5" Sometimes a bit more leg room would be nice. But on the whole... for day long (400+ mile rides) I'm comfortable.

Now, as Shorts said, is this your second bike or your 4th,5th... etc?

Consider dual sport bikes the V-strom 650 is a nice bike.
