Post by: SuZuki10 on March 04, 2005, 02:56:03 PM
I saw in the general discussion that people are interested in buying dogbones for lowering their bikes...How tall are ya'll?  

I'm 5'3 and have a set on my bike since 2 days after I bought it.

about 5'11"  Don't need dogbones.  If ever get a 600 though, and if my wife decides she wants it, I'll have to lower the GS for her, she's about 5'3" also.

Graphical update.
After contemplation I felt standard error was more appropriate measure of deviation due to vastly different sample sizes.  I've also included national averages for comparison.

As for sex assignment, I started out with an "other category" but went with several sexist assumptions instead.  I have two women listed "Suziki10" and "MstrsLilBrat". Let me know if gender-reassigned you.

I'm touched to be remembered :icon_razz:
I moved to NC from TX which was an adventure. I sold my GS before moving. Bought a nighthawk 750 and rode it til weather warmed up and sold it for a tidy profit. I'm wrenching on a 1979 GS 850 (4 cyl shaftie) these days.

I still look at the GStwin but I haven't posted in quite a while.

I'm closer to Srinath now, so maybe he can hook me up with nice GS.

5'3, or about 5'4.5 in my riding boots. I can not flatfoot the GS, but I make do. Figure it'll work out better for me so I can upgrade later and feel comfortable on a bigger bike.

I'm 6'5"-6'6" somewhere around there... 220 lbs, yeah flat footing on a bike has never been and will never be an issue for me... as long as the handle bars clear my knees I'm fine... now fitting in race leathers, that's hard
