Title: Online Motorcycle Fitment Guide
Post by PerrydaSavage on 11/08/10 at 08:41:07

This is pretty wild ... just punch in your height and inseam and choose a particular model Bike to see if it'll fit (doesn't show LS650 though) ... Will even show feet down and feet up!

That is pretty neat -- shows me up on tippy toes on all the bikes I'd like to ride ..... but can't.

Pretty realistic if you ask me.

Good tool for bike shoppers.

That's a handy tool. Apparently I should't ride over 3/4 of the bikes out there. >:(

That is pretty cool. It wouldn't show me on a Night Rod either even though I've ridden one.

if you change it to reach the ground it'll show you, even if your legs dangle, ask me how I know . . .

5'1" limited options, this is a great tool!

Yep ! And no Ducati ST, neither... :-/

No Kawasaki Drifter, the "Indian lookalike" based on the Vulcan.

I think they simply posted the bikes that sell most.

On the other hand, dealerships should have such a tool to check biometrics of a buyer before he tries to sit on the bike, teeters and falls to one side !!! ;D ;D ;D

I wish this had been around when i was first MC shopping - I could have saved a LOT of wasted time sitting on bikes where my feet never reached the floor!

mine are short ,they bearly reach my a$$. 30" inseam,and its tough trying to find pants at 32" + 30" it's not easy being a shortass.
Every year I get a couple of pairs of sweat pants just for lounging around the house, so I went to wal-mart the sizes started at LG,then went to XLg, then to XX Lg, then to XXXLg.and to ,please see or ask for the manager, I called and told him I wanted Small, he sent me to the boys department, pretty bad when a 73 year old guy has to go to the junior dept.

Catch-22: "The photo must be a press photo from the manufacturer"

Requests that the picture is white background and "reasonably large; ideally 800 pixels wide or more"

Know what you mean babyhog. If I try to buy mens' sizes I have to get a 27 or 28 waist and a 32 length, almost impossible to find on the shelf. Or my other option is the junior dept where all the zippers are about 2 inches long in the front and about 2 inches of my butt is going to hang out in the back. ;D
