I'm a short guy, 5 ft 4", but an experienced rider. I ended up finally doing a custom bobber, flyrite frames out of Los Angeles, did the the frame so I could slap a real engine in it. I can't lie.. with my short legs I had to go for years choosing between the height I felt comfortable with and could flat foot at stops.. or the power I wanted as a long time bike enthusiast. I'm so glad to see that now so many companies are adding real power to lower bikes. Now I could buy one instead of having to have one built like I did.
Wow, same height. Have a stock gsxr 750 but have rode ADV’s as well. Long as I can get 1 foot down I’m good, but I’m sorta use to it coming from dirt bikes. Must say it is great that company’s are catering to all heights, I’m sure it’s quite intimidating to newer riders.
I'm also the same height but I have experience driving taller bikes for my height. I had a cruiser in India - Bajaj Avenger. It was perfect height for me lol and it was fun to drive. For the same reasons I'm thinking of getting a Scout Bobber because it looks a little taller if not the same height.
I don't own one but I browsed through the specs sheets a couple of years ago enough to remember that the seat height was more than 810mm (810 is my threshold I'm 5.2) and figured it ain't for me.
Thanks for this content! But some of the info on this video is not right. Duke 390 seat height is around 810mm and was one of the deal breakers for short riders. Was quite surprised it was included on this video. Also, the Ninja 400 price is 331k for 2022 models and already 349k for the 2023 model. 315k was for the older and 2nd hand models maybe?🤷🏽♂️
you don't need to put both feet on the ground. Your right foot should always be on the rear brake anyway. I'm 5'2 and can handle up to 810mm seat height. I mean look at Gakimoto.
Thanks for this review. I'm 5 flat literally... Started with XSR 155 for practice. Then bought a REBEL 500 two months ago as starter.. Eying a Bonneville Triumph Bobber or Harley as Upgrade soon.
@@josephnova7864 I'm tip toed on XSR 155 , but manageable.. riding it was not hard especially when the bike is running. It's a different story if you're stuck in traffic. I'm 5 flat. If you're taller than me then there is no issue at all
I think 390 Duke seat height they gave is wrong. I own one, and tried the CB650R on the dealership when I bought it. 390 Duke seat height was definitely taller, I'd say 830 is more accurate than 787.
My wife is 5'1". We haven't found a bike that she can both put her feet on the ground and comfortably put her feet on the pegs. Its either or. The footpegs are to long a reach to comfortably ride distances or the seat is to high. She has had several bikes, right now she rides a benelli TNT 135 back and forth from work and she has to tippy toe that little bike.

Mio 125, honda click 125, sniper 150, bajaj 150 and many more you should includes on your not so generic bike for shorter riders title. Bro let caco do the reviews for all the category it would be fun 😂😂😂
So, only sport bike for me here would be the ninja400. I'm only 154cm tall, can't find a sport bike over 600cc to suit me. I don't get it. Why can't they make some sport bikes 600-650cc with a seat heigh under 800mm.😢
The Suzuki is a poor recommendation for short riders. The distance from the back of the fuel tank to the handlebars is very long. Even if one is able to reach the ground, they might not be able to reach the handlebars unless they are laying on the fuel tank.
Embrace the uncomfortable! I urge newer riders to get whatever motorcycle they like despite the seat height, There is no doubt you will get used to it and it will be more satisfying in the long run.
Not true. Comfort is a big factor in the fun. Don't be a "tiis-ganda". It's also more sustainable that way. Also seat height is about safety too. Chances are, the more comfortable you are, you'll be safer on the road.
@@chrisbarbz9238 taller bikes are usually more comfortable and more stable and with proper education and training about motorcycles are no less safe than lower ones. I think you got my comment wrong here, im not a tiis ganda type of person. Im simply suggesting that people will have a better time in motorcycles if they get out of their "comfort zone", not necessarily meaning that you shoud get uncomfortable bikes.
@@norbertovillarealiii6750 I think by "taller bikes" you mean "upright" to which I'd agree, the more upright equals more comfort ergonomically. Not all upright bikes are tall and not all tall bikes are upright, so if you simply mean "tall", then I'd disagree. Can't really fault me if you think I misconstrued your point, to which I'm only responding to because I think it's wrong and potentially misleading to a dangerous assertion to forgo comfort (and safety, I argue) for the sake of having a bike. Part of the equation to your decision to get a bike should include the comfort AND fit (ergo seat height). "Embrace the uncomfortable", "Get out of your comfort zone", those sentiments are catchy at best. But they're incomplete sentences and contextual, and therefore highly ambiguous. While I agree that you can master any motorcycle, that's not what you said the first time, and you repeated to say ambiguous things.
@@chrisbarbz9238 By tall I mean tall, not not necessarily upright because there are low seat bikes that are upright riding. High seat, high handle bars usually large wheels, ADV kind of bikes, which are usually very comfortable and mostly upright. Were talking seat heights so by "get out of your comfort zone" I mean don't limit yourself on bikes with low seat heights. I don't know what is ambiguous about it, its my first comment as well.
@@norbertovillarealiii6750 First and foremost you're urging people to get bikes "despite the seat height" is different from saying "don't limit yourself on bikes with low seat height". The former was ambiguous, and unsound, as I've already established, and you just clarifying doesn't constitute as being clear. Second, what I said about comfort.. "Embrace the uncomfortable".. Like, what does that even mean (i.e. ambiguous)? Will you teach a little girl on a Multistrada and just tell her "get out of your comfort zone"? Will you teach a new rider to go 100 kph around the bends of Baguio because he should "embrace the uncomfortable"? I'm just pointing out that that is unsound guidance in and of itself and really is out of place from your whole narrative.

I own a 390 Duke. Stock seat height is at least 820mm.

It is noteworthy that the Triumph Tiger 900 has a GT Low ride height variant with a seat height of 760mm to 780mm.
Don't forget, we also have the Kawasaki Vulcan 650.
Finally, a Motodeal video just for me 🥺
i'm 5'2. To say the least, that is VERY close to the ground.
Maybe aiming for a Grom but I want a faster bike too
A Honda Rebel or Kawasaki Vulkan would be your best bet😊

I'm 5'2 and can handle up to 810mm seat height. I mean look at Gakimoto.
I'm 164cm and would love to get the XSR155 (810mm) as my next bike. I'm a beginner at 51 with a Z125 Pro to building up my confidence
Sir bkameron ka top 10 for 4’10 bite size lady riders😂😅😅😅
Why nobody bothers to keep tje handle bar closer too, short people have shorter hands as well.
SV650 seat height 785MM not in the list😄
How's Himalayan and Triumph Tiger friendly for short riders??
I sat on that Indian scout and the riding position is like doing set ups.
Benelli motobi evo 200 is still the most ideal cruiser available here in PH.

i thought gsxr 1000 seat height is 825mm, but gsr 600-750 seat height 810mm
No mention of the Kawasaki Vulcan S 650? It only has a seat height of 705mm.
How come Philippines' 390 Duke, Tiger 660 and Street Twin got lower seat heights than in Thailand? They're 830, 835 and 765mm here.
I agree i have duke 390 and im 5'10 lil bit tip toe
I think 390 Duke seat height they gave is wrong. I own one, and tried the CB650R on the dealership when I bought it. 390 Duke seat height was definitely taller, I'd say 830 is more accurate than 787.
Probably lowering kits might have been involved. Not sure about the triumphs but the duke is over 800mm for sure.
bristol bobber 650 and veloce 500
bang for the buck short rider friendly bikes
You included the ninja 400 and duke 390 but not the r3 which has an even lower seat height?
You could have include the Motoguzzi V7 but I don't know how common they are in the Philippines.
Ako na short na nga sa height short rin sa budget: OUCH
805mm and above are not for the typical "short" riders for us Filipinos since our average height is only around 5'5".
I would love to see you do a review on the ZX-25R
im surprised benenelli's motobi wasnt included in the list. But looking at the list, they cost more than 300k.
How about top 10 inline 4 motorcycles for budget riders
How about Suzuki SV650?
I thought ktm 390 duke's seat height is around 810mm?
it's actually 830 mm indeed.
