Height Issues for a girl

[gohjohan]

I have seen 165cm girl riding GS. Wonder how she managed, I am impressed. So don't think it will be a problem.

 

Is that a GS1200 that she's riding? 1200 is lighter, so still can manage. I think I saw her at Hougang before. Saw her riding off from the open air carpark.

none. im quite light actually. obviously i cant touch the ground flat foot. what i mean was i can tip toe on it on both of my legs. that's good enough. haha!

Hi guys. I'm 163cm. Will I be able to touch the ground on a 150sp?

I'm afraid i cannot balance the bike on 1 leg. help !

 

ps. I am a girl

 

i've seen way shorter girls balance a sp.. definately no issues..

Aiyoh... I've seen girls who are your height riding a Fireblade 1000, Fazers, etc...

 

NSR SP is no problem in comparison with these Class 2 bikes I've listed...

 

PS: What I stated is just my observation. I've never experienced problems with seat height ever.

No problem la.. i tink u can even ride a super 4.

So many people here give u vote of confidence... haha

Go for it!

You all should be concerned with your inseam and not your overall height. Height does not serve a purpose in this discussion unless you are like 6ft tall and can't reach the ground. With that said, an inseam of about 28" would be good? No? No idea how high the seat is anyway.

how to measure inseam?

oic. Should have mentioned that earlier

 

how to measure inseam?

 

Stand with your legs together, get someone to measure from your crotch to the ground.

 

The tailor's method of measuring can be found here

 

Shiraz and I ride cruiser bikes with wide seats, so inseam is important.

when I think about it, there are techniques to overcome height problems and weight of the bike problems. Best to observe other riders and trial and error until you can find the most suitable technique

on the average side.. i would say no prob. my female fren standing at 157cm can ride my sp well last time. unless ur body is longer than ur legs.

[swiftee]

can ride and comfortable to ride are two different things

 

im kinda short. sure i can ride some bikes, but after keeping them stationary for long periods, my supporting leg starts to get really tired.

 

anyway nsr150sp isnt one of these bikes so u should have no problem. its skinny and short, no problem!

girl - i am 163 and i rode a sp, s4,cbr400,rvf and cbr600. totally not a problem.

wah lau, u Honda supporter eh.

I wonder if can further "shave" the seat of NSR150SP? Yes for sure there's some techniques rider can do to overcome height issue. Tried it the result are good so far.

[rocklobster]

sitting and riding should be no problem... kickstarting the bike is another issue... my girlfriend around your height has quite a lot of problem starting my SP esp for cold start..
