Thank you SO much! I am a midget and your video really inspired me! I one foot it & am real good. And I never stop on an uphill or downhill. I also use a 2 step ladder to get on & I usually ride to an area where I can get one foot down, like a curb. I lean a lot (45*) at stop lights but get one foot firmly planted. One advantage to my 3'7" height is that I tuck when going fast and hardly any wind hits me.

Smart lady, very good advice. I began biking in 1967 when all bikes were far less tall. Nowadays what I consider to be a giant bike (my GTR1400) is very heavy, with a high centre of gravity, and a far too high seat height - '.m 5ft. 9 ins. and on the balls of my feet!!!!!!! As any racer will confirm, for max. handling bikes need to be light, with a low centre of gravity, and low seating. Manufacturers routinely break these basic principles, and see only the need to inflict on us complex (immensely expensive to repair) unnecessary electronics. It's all extremely silly. The bike of mine I mentioned boasts a frame and wheels painted with ONE COAT of WATER COLOUR PAINT! For heaven's sake! So, to return to the subject - a vast number today's bikers are by necessity into shorter rear suspension and / or 'Lust Racing' suspension linkages, and / or lowered seats. And as girlie said - softening the suspension all round. Although girlie manages beautifully in daylight on flat ground, rest assured that slowly manaovering a very heavy bike after dark on uneven ground on tiptoe is an entirely different matter, and a damn good recipe for dropping the machine no matter how clever/ experienced one thinks one is. P.S. A sound temporary fix for ladies are high heels. I joke not.

At 5'6(167cm) the only stock sportbikes I can flatfoot are the GSXR. Suzuki really did a great job designing the subframe for shorter riders. For the fit/performance/styling and $ for maintenance, Suzuki gets my thumbs up for best bang for the buck. Coming from a zx-10r owner.

Good tips. I sit at 5'3" 150lbs and after a few hundred to a thousand miles, I adjust my suspension usually one notch above middle. That gives me enough rebound for cornering with my weight, but just the right amount of sag. I just did a similar video a few weeks ago showing how I manage a stock R6 and Z650. Each bike sits very different, and requires totally different technique for stops and starts. The Z650 is a great short person or possible beginner bike. Keep up the great vids!

LOL Seriously that IS the true limiting factor. Bikes shes owned, Ninja 250, SV650S, F650 BMW and CBR600 F4i. Only the SV was lowered with lowering links, all the other bikes were pretty much stock. If a 4'11" girl can do it just about anyone can. My wife gets a kick out of someone that is 5'3" claiming they are too short to ride. BTW You can always pick up a bike like a Sportster if you find sport bikes too tall. Yamaha Bolt looks pretty cool too.

Another tip when testing sitting bikes in a dealership, if the bikes has newer tires or new tires ,it's more realistic fitting, because soon or later you need to change ties, new tires will always be taller because center of the tires are never worn-out. I just changed to a sets of q3, I can't even tip toes, just barely. I have to use 1 feet for now. Also a slightly higher tire psi will increase height

I am a 5'5" tall guy with a 29" inseam and a WR250R. I like the kick stand trick, I usually look for a curb for getting on and off. I keep a concrete block near the garage for getting on and off.I have added a lowering link and slid the fork tubes up 18mm. The bike is a lot of fun...could use a little more pop, but the height is a real issue on single track. I keep getting into situations that if I could reach the ground would save me from falling over. The WR is a tank for a dirt bike and it is tough to pick up. I was hoping for a dirt bike, but will be limited to forest roads and street riding. What I need is something like the Honda CRF150 made street legal.

I'm 5'3" and started on a Kawasaki eliminator 125. I can flat foot it even on the passenger seat. I went to the local dealer to try a few bikes and I was looking at a Ninja 300 or maybe a bigger cruiser.

The balancing act will fail one day when you come to a stop on an uneven road where the center part is much deeper. The best solution is still a lowering kit that lowers the seat height by as much as 2 inches, and a cut out seat.

I'm 5ft 3in male weight 160lbs. I ride 2016 Yamaha ft-09. As you can tell I'm short with a taller biker. I usually always have one foot on foot stand and other on the ground with tip toes. I feel perfectly fine. It just all depends on how comfortable it is to you.

I only just started riding a month ago, I am 5ft 2 and got a CBR500r as a first bike, thanks for this video, I didn't think of softening the suspension to help with my height so I am definitely going to do this now (I am super light too, so the suspension is like a rock at the moment when I sit on it). Cheers.

I think it's funny when short riders say how to deal with bikes, but they ride a sportbike and can tiptoe... I'm 5'4 and ride a yz250f. If I'm lucky I can get toes down on one foot if I shift the seat up to my inner knee on the opposite leg. It's all about bike control and honestly if you have to get off when you stop, do it. Dealing with tall bikes? Learn to use clutch and throttle at very low to a stopped speed, that's my advice. Granted I ride mostly offroad so this is very skewed, yet I still come to a standstill and have to shift and even jump off quickly. So, how to deal with a tall bike? Just fucking do it, you'll be fine. Just my two cents.

People think it's just height, but the length of the legs isn't all... the width of your hips, (typically women have wider hips) and the width of the seat make a difference, a wide seat will eat up some of your leg length as you straddle it, so women can usually fit on a wider seat more comfortably. Your weight also has to do with it, a small light person wont compress the bike as much, even with adjusting the shocks, when a heavier person will drop the bike more. Also take into account, some people are small, but have bigger feet.. I'm 5'6 but have a size 11 Nike foot. So my big ass feet make up for short legs when I use my tippy toes. So all in all, with the same exact bike ten people of the same height will fit on it differently, some will be flat foot, some tippy toe, some won't fit at all... you just have to try out a few bikes and see what fits you.

Riders & potential riders! As a former 12 yrs. Motorcycle Safety Instructor, I must point out other important facts about this video. It is intended to help to getting around a fitting problem. However, someone will be injured or killed thinking they can ride like that in every situation as long as they own that bike. There are countless variables that cannot be over looked. Getting caught in the rain on roadways that has painted lines / manhole covers or stop & go traffic will be very hazardous. Fatigue that will wear on you. Riding tippy toe is like asking a woman (34B) to wear a size 36DD bra or a 130lb man to wear 42 waist pants. Riding an unfit motorcycle puts you and the public at risk. What is the point in that? Believe me, that will decrease your safety margin fast. Please, think harder before you commit to that challenge. .

some great advice for shorter riders. Confidence is key, and trying out a variety of bikes is important. I'd advise starting lower seat, and narrower through the inseam to start with and gain confidence though
