If you grew up riding dirt bikes you got used to not being able to touch both feet down.

Back when I started riding on the dirt (late '70s), we rode with a kid that was on a new RM125. He couldn't touch at all, and would come around the track to where his dad was so he could catch him when he stopped. He was dam fast too...

I like a tall bike myself, and rode a XL250R on the street for a while.
