I'm just under 6' 4" but am all arms and legs so I find the bike a bit too low so am looking for a saddle I can get recovered with 1.5" of extra foam.
Keep the rubber side down.          Mick

Just under 6'4" is called 6'3" Mick  :lol:

Maybe we should start new thread posting pics of how we look sitting on our bikes and mention mods we made (if made...footpegs, talller or lower seat...) and how tall are we. Don't have to mention is it comfortable....we all know it is! :cheers:

If you all are interested in that, tommorrow I will start new thread....maybe more pics of how short or tall person looks on bike and how they feel can help future 14 riders who does not have ability to try one before buying like I did not have. It turned out to be a good bike for tall riders like me (with small mods).

Here's one of me collecting the new blue.  Something not right though, fisheye lens maybe? I look huge & rotund in that pic.

Me too, should we start a Hobitt Rider section? It's like watching "land of the giants" again from my childhood.   :lol: :lol:
If you are going to run out of fuel, do it in your garage.

It's only a short walk to the kettle.

It's an air vent Red, it was bloody hot that day & I was sweating in the gear sitting in the sun!  Had to get some wind around me to cool me down.
