Interesting, wonder how accurate it is?

The two riders in our household have both used it to screen out machines from further consideration.  It is not definitive, but quite useful.

Looks like 6'10" with a 41" inseam would work a bit better on my Daytona instead of my short inseam, short arm dimensions.

I found it pretty accurate when I was shopping.

Just used it to sort out the not-so-nice ergos on the son's Harley. Used it in comparison to me on the Breva and it looks pretty close. It appears to confirm what he thought, so come winter his handlebars and seat will come under a bit of scrutiny.

Appears to be a very useful tool, thanks C.R.
