Title: Do I fit the V85TT? Video
Post by: elvisboy77 on June 18, 2021, 09:52:52 AM
This is a very interesting series, showing different height folks on different bikes.  Here is the one for the v85TT

I found this 'motorcycle height simulator' a few years back... my 6'7" tall buddy wanted to know if he would look silly getting a nighthawk as his first bike, LOL!

But I like that the video you posted showed the 'flat foot' position of different riders as well. Thanks for sharing!

Of course we all know you don't have to flat foot a bike to be able to ride the bike.

On perfectly level ground, yes.  On cambered road or at an offset drive entrance, not so much.

I'm guessing you didn't watch the video.
