I could have written this! word-for-word!

A lowered BMW 650 GS is the only thing I've been on that was a great fit, but I'll never be able to afford such a bike, at least not new. I sat on a Triumph Scrambler, and it was a total big toe situation - I wouldn't trust myself on it, though I LOVED it (I also couldn't afford such right now). All you women over 64" make me so jealous.

For now, I'm on a 1982 Honda Nighthawk - not at all a dual sport, but it's low enough for me!
