What is your inseam?

Talonne · August 30th, 2010, 02:47 PM

I got a little curious as to how many people ride the Ninjette because of height issues... so I made a poll. Interested to see the responses!

hinow41 · August 30th, 2010, 03:08 PM

I'm 6ft 5 and 240lb and I ride the piss out of her. Iv done 1100 mile trips with no problem. An SV650 rear shock also helps out a bit

Snake · August 30th, 2010, 03:49 PM

I'm 5' 7" and have a 30" inseam. The seat height is just right for me.

Yoda · August 30th, 2010, 03:57 PM

Depending on the jean maker 30-32.

Ninja fits very nicely.

Snake · August 30th, 2010, 04:01 PM

Jessica, what is your inseam and height? Just curious.

Just like me

BlueRaven · August 30th, 2010, 06:15 PM

27" for me i think

Anteraan · August 30th, 2010, 07:30 PM

I ride it in spite of height issues, not because of them. That said, I'm ok with it, despite my 35" inseam.

highpsiguy · August 30th, 2010, 07:34 PM

34 inch inseam for me. Being flat footed- NO PROBLEM 6ft 4 so I am long in the mid section. Gorilla riding a football. Even with my size I have GREAT wind protection and upright sitting position. The fairing pushes the wind exactly to the top of my shoulders. My helmet is in perfect "clean" non buffeted air. I have spent hundreds and hundreds of dollars on aftermarket windshields for different bikes to give me what the lil ninja gives me STOCK!

Cab305 · August 30th, 2010, 07:37 PM

I'm 5'8 don't know my inseam. But I can stand flat with my ass way off seat. I didn't take seat height so much as engine size into my consideration.

Zombiphone · August 30th, 2010, 07:53 PM

Damn, some of you guys are tall. I'm only 5'6" with about a 30" inseam. I flat foot comfortably on the 250 at stock height though. I'm stretching a bit for a lot of bigger bikes, but I can also flat foot a gixxer 600 and I'm maybe half an inch off flat footing a 600rr. So I'm pretty conveniently sized

DAKINECHICk · August 30th, 2010, 08:59 PM

5'0". Booooo to that! BUT I do wear lifts in my shoes, cause I'm not a fan of being short, so that Helps! Bike is also lowered and seat has been cut a little as well. After he was lowered, I can stand flat footed which is the first bike I've ever owned where I could. YAY! I can tip toe on a gixxer 600, though......SO CLOSE!!

^^Fun-sized girls ROCK!^^

34" inch inseam - and I dress to the right - keeping the weight throttle-side

Werehusky · August 30th, 2010, 10:22 PM

5'8, 175ibs, 31inch inseam. I touch down fine on my 600rr, the ninjette has a lowering kit on it so it's really easy to touch down on.

5-11, 33" inseam. Stock height with taller tires on the '06. Flat-foot easily.

Average for where? Middle earth?

Blackwidow · August 31st, 2010, 09:23 AM

i'm super short, I HATE IT! i don't know my inseam but i guess 27" maybe even less.

Alex · August 31st, 2010, 10:23 AM

I'm sure you'll have plenty of volunteers to help you measure it, all you need to do is ask.

(Thinking of Joey from Friends describing his childhood tailor...)

HAHA I'm 5'11 and my inseam is only 31". Either that or my junk takes up too much room at the top and hinders my ability to measure properly....

Same as me!

I made the mistake of sitting on the BMW S1000RR and finding out I am almost flat foot sitting on it, then I realized I would kill myself on that bike lol.
