I didn't think the bike community would belittle me for asking bike questions just because I haven't pass.

[wait4me]

where all the white knights ...

come in faster ....

look for TW200 bah... its the nearest to a scramber...

[XxPJYxX]

Are u Malay, Chinese or Indian? Malay will ride kr, tzm... Chinese will ride sp, kr... Indian will ride sp, tzm... Anyway, short girls better not ride scramblers on the road... They want to die, I rather they jump down... Don't cause other road users driving license to be disqualified because they're short and can't balance their bike... Get what I mean? For scrambler, there's a small one like the size of a pocket bike... But it costs about $8k-$10k machine price... Height about 1-1.2metres from the ground only... To speed about 80-100kmh... Forgot what model is it but it's from kawasaki... Think it should be just nice for u...

Honda xr125? Down forks, lowering kits and seat trimming? I'm sure you can make it

An honda XR125 or TW200 is a good bike to start off for scrambler lovers with a height limitation requirement.

[Jehuty]

Wear platform shoes.

Why TS you want a scrambler???? To look good? But a scrambler will only look good when high and tall. Not talking about technical capabilities or bike purpose here, but if you are after the looks department, then better dont go into such thoughts cos (*touchwood) the changes of falls are higher if you ride a machine that you cannot handle.....

 

A scrambler with cut seats, lowered dog-bone, lowered forks, adjusted (or modified/changed) springs, smaller rims with low profile motard rubbers... errmmm.... doesn't this look exactly like a CG125???

 

OK.... let's put it as die die (but don't die) you wan a scrambler.... my solution to you is Kawasaki KSR110... Confirm guarantee plus chop no worries about height. ....

Ohh... TS is 1.6m??? Then got chance..... Maybe not a SCRAMBLER but a motard can. Not only it's lower, it's also safer with street rubbers and not knobbies...

 

Then again............. PASS FIRST LAH!!

Okay so I'm still undergoing my practicals at SSDC and the honda bikes there are already too heavy for me to handle. It's okay, you can call me weak, kering, etc.. It doesn't really matter because I'm aware of how pathetic this is. I had to put on koyok on my back for 2 weeks after the orientation simply because one of the instructors made me try and stand a 2A bike but unfortunately I couldn't even shift the handle.

 

Anyways, I've always dreamed of having a scrambler, and I've tested the weight of my brother's bike, it was tolerable, scramblers are known for bbeing lightweight right? but problem is, it's too high. Like I can't even tip toe and my feet will be dangling on the leg rest area when the bike is upright. I tried doing what most girls I've seen on the road have done; once at traffic lights, they tend to lean the bike towards the left, like literally 40 degrees senget and manage to put their feet down. Some even put their feet on curbs. but what if theres no curbs?

 

thats downright dangerous man. it's a freaking stationery accident waiting to happen. of course I did attempted to sit on my brothers bike and max I could do is lean the bike side ways while only my thigh is left on the seat instead of my butt AND still tiptoeing. not good... not good...

 

I wouldn't want a scooter or those less scary looking bikes either. Anybody have any clue which and what scrambler would fit nicely for a girl with 1.6m height?

 

Whatever, as long as you stay far away from my cars and bike when you are riding

[bunny_hui]

Just get a bike that suit u n u r comfort to ride with !!!

Just my 2 cent

Muayhaha, what a way to "welcome" her to SBF!

 

Eh no hard feelings ok, Arshanti......

[Heathx]

KSR110 is probably the safest choice in terms of height and looks. However, there are other choices out there in the market too. You can googling mini motards. There are quite a few models out there. And yes, motards and scramblers are lightweight machines.

 

You will most likely be unable to ride any scrambler properly without doing any height modifications though. They are supposedly higher than the honda bikes in driving centers. I know the KTM 200 is for sure. KTM Duke seems similar as the hondas i think. not too sure, but it's not a pure motard.

 

If looks is not that important, then i'm pretty sure a Spark, Wave, X1R etc models of kup chais will suit you well. They are lightweight, and not high-profile in terms of seat height.

[SBSSAR]

I know the KTM 200 is for sure

yep, get the Duke

@juvena

 

[papabread79]

Haha. Ok.... next pls.

[T.D.C]

You may get any 2B motards and lower or modify shocks & forks.

If u dislike hassles, Kawasaki KSR110 is perfect for you.

 

1.60m is not that short anyways. You may consider KTM duke 200.

Ain't a motard, but sure looks good

 

Anyway guys I think she's diligently working on her 2B.

No response from her thus far, haha.

Oh.. the lucky draw winner of sbf anniversary 2013 is selling is XTM200 motard. New lucky bike wo
