Same with your spelling!

@@jonnyfications lol

I would be gutted to have mine removed, particularly with the cost of doing a full licence these days! Luckily we can now save documents electronically so hopefully this shouldn't happen anymore. DVLA need to sort this for those that have been affected.

820mm isn't too bad. MT07 is 805mm....

@@jonnyfications it’s 820mm?! Gee.. I got to go check some out! Thanks!

It took the edge off the obnoxiously loud bark when accelerating. I would say though that it softened the sound without removing the aggressive notes imo..... does that make sense?

Good work. You'll be fine! 🤘😎

Triumphs are the best bet! No probs getting feet down on those with low set up 👍🏻

Yes, of course there are! Cruisers, usually they have very low height seats (too bad I don’t like them much. Unfortunately I like tourer and adv bikes) And remember that only seat height spec is not the only factor. You need to seat on a bike, the suspension lowers a bit and also depends on seat width and lower frame of the bike. I’m a little bit more than exactly 28” inseam and, of course, I feel very restricted on which bikes I can handle, specially because I’m still inexperienced and weight is also a problem for me. But now I’m looking for a new bike (I took my motorbike drivers license recently and currently I’m riding a 125cc machine) and I think I can find a machine for me. Perhaps it will not be the one I really wanted to chose but it will be fine and very enjoyable, I’m sure!

@@jonnyficationsI’m completely headed only to Japanese bikes, but I guess I have to widen my choices. I’m somewhat reluctant about other brands mainly because of the “said” reliability of that brands. Specially because I don’t understand a thing about mechanics and I’m not a very gifted person trying to repair things.

Fair enough if its not you're thing.

Prob not really about height, but inside leg is the defining factor. I'd say anything below 30" is on the short side.

I'm around 5'3" but I'd say 5'6" and below.

Thanks 🤘😎

I Still think the Street Twin is favourite! The t**t had been itching to get past me all the way down Newmarket Rd and along the 50mph section.

@@jonnyfications Yep, good choice, I had an early one, I hear the later ones are much better. Mine spent too long back at the dealers.

@@user-rf9me7xm1w I remember you saying you had one. I'm surprised it had issues being a Triumph. Fingers crossed the recent ones won't be too bad!

@@jonnyfications I think you should be ok with a post 2018 model, the earlier ones had a problem with the wiring loom being stretched too tightly across the headstock. When I turned to full right hand lock, you could actually hear it creaking as it was pulled across the frame. This caused internal fractures of the wires. The initial problem of duff indicators was repaired under warranty but when other intermittent electrical gremlins started appearing when it was out of warranty, I thought it was time to get rid. The final straw was the experience highlighted by Stuart Fillingham regarding the gearbox malfunctions and Triumph’s response, so I traded it in for an MT 03 and couldn’t be happier. It’s a great little bike, light weight, low seat height and a blast on the twisties. Everything’s LED and nothing’s failed yet. It’s only 321 cc and 42 bhp but the power to weight ratio is on par with much larger bikes. It might suit everyone but for me it’s spot on.

You're a brave man! Bikes got a low seat, but it's quite wide too, let me know how you get on. Nice choice though!👌 🤘😎

I get what you're saying about the 250cc old school class. I only paid around £600 for DAS. Even though I'd been driving for many years I still had to do CBT, Theory, Mod 1 and Mod 2. I feel like it was worth it though that knowledge and training has been invaluable. Remember, bikes are like sports cars, if not a little faster and you have no protection at all if you crash. But the training and expense is worth it IMO, now I'm free to ride whatever size bike I like, happy days! 🤘😎

I found it to be ok. Feels really light at a stop. Its maybe a little high, but one foot down was fine. I didn't feel uncomfortable at all, nor did I feel like I was likely to drop it. Try one, I think you'll like it, really fun, fast machine! 🤘😎

It's definitely LOUD!

I took it off in the end and put the stock back on in preparation for trading the bike for a different one. Haven't done that yet due to lots of personal stuff going on! Well spotted 🧐😆

@@jonnyfications Are you looking to sell it?

@@jonnyfications ?

Decide what sort of bike you like and narrow it down from there! If you've got 30cm inseam you should be ok on most.

You are Forrest Gump

Maybe, but if I left it longer it wouldn't fit, and there's only so much wadding you can add before it becomes too fat! Better than the radiant shorty baffle though by far!

If you really wamt a bike with decent power do it. A2 bikes are still quite fast, and you can get them restricted so when you pass the full test you can just get it taken off. Same bike, more power. If you can wait until 24 it'll save you paying for 2 lots of training/ tests although conversion from A2 to full A is reduced.

@@jonnyfications thanks for such a detailed response. I’m on the fence at the moment! Thank you!!
