That's a huge thumper! I've always wanted a sumo of some sort, but because I'm vertically challenged, I need to bring a little stool with me to mount the damn thing. With that said, I can't even think about the 40" seat height of a dual sport

The aftermarket seat I have makes it taller lol I can touch both feet but only with toes. I like tall bikes. Maybe I've just been l've been riding long enough, but the height doesn't bother me at all.

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.
