Hi there!

I'm just in the process of getting my rider L's and stumbled across these rad bikes. I am a huge fan of the bobbers, and this one is beautiful! My biggest concern is the size of me. I'm 6'4 and 130kgs on a good day. Is this bike still a good option for me?

Thanks so much in advance!!

Length wise you are totally fine. Plenty of room for your legs. It's a full size bike and the forward pegs are REALLY forward. Iv'e no idea how the weight would figure into it as I'm not as heavy as you. The seat is pretty thin so you may find it a little uncomfortable (is fine for me, but I'm only half your weight). The engine should still push you along fine though.

Depends how and where you plan to ride maybe. I'm 95kgs and my Daytona can still push me up and around the hills of Perth at 100k's easily enough.

Agree with Grot regardig the seat, might get a bit uncomfortable for long rides.
