hippyjosh Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Titles says it all, wondering if anyone around 5'2" has experience on the bike? My girlfriend and I both want to purchase bikes, but she's concerned about her height. Does the FZ have a way to adjust the riding height? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruizin Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 The riding height isn't really adjustable. Lowering links could be a possibility. Not sure. Best way to tell is to take her to a dealer to sit on one. See if she can touch both feet down or not.

dede Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 You can do a simulation here: http://cycle-ergo.com/ Start with "Add a motorcycle", pick the 2014 MT-07 and put in the height and inseam under rider info. Then play with the "Options" tab and "put feet on ground"... it seems she would be ok with an average inseam (sorry to be talking about your GF's inseam like this ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

missourifz07 Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 I had my neighbor lady sit on mine tonight with this thread in mind. She is 5'3" and has some riding experience. She said she was comfortable. When she tried to plant her feet on the ground she wasn't on her tip toes but certainly not flat footed. She did have flip flops on so proper shoes would have helped her. Basically she could plant the ball of her feet to the ground. Sorry fellas...I felt a lil creepy asking to take a picture : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
