Seat Height Issue Question
After looking and testing motorbikes trying to figure out which one to buy, I have come up with the Suzuki DL650 V-Strom.
However just to make sure I have covered everything I would like to ask what may appear to be a "dud" question.
Another bike I like is the Suzuki DR650 but the seat height is just too high. At 885mm it is 65mm higher than the V-Strom. I"m 5' 8" and the V-strom at 820mm is about as high as I can go and be comfortable stopping with the bike under control.
How do others get on with high seats. Does it mean altering the suspension drastically or do tall persons only buy bikes like the DR650?
Thanks in appreciation of any comments.
Alex
