You can't take that one?

How's the seat height? I'm average height and want a dual sport or straight touring, but they look way too tall for me.

I have one. I'm 178cms and I can't get my heels down, but I get the balls of both feel down with no issue. It's not top heavy like the Tenere or Africa Twin, so it's not too intimidating.

It's the perfect height for me at 185cm. I can flat foot it, but the seat is still touching my nuts, just the way his divine noodly appendage intended it

Ok. I'm about the same height. 176cms. I'll need to check this model out.

I CAN... but it's -10C now, and 4dm of snow๐Ÿ˜ƒ. The seat height is kind of high. 830mm, I'm 186cm, and it's perfect for me.

Feels weird buying something I cant use yet ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Ooof. Ya. Good idea waiting until spring. Send us some videos when you get to ride it.
