I'm 5'4 and fat and I ride a jacked up 748 and before that a 750SS, both tall bikes which I could not comfortably touch the floor on. |
so am I (well, bit more than 5'4 and male, but rest is the same!!) But I know how to plan ahead and what to do when I stop (shuffle over seat,. leave in gear, look for a kerb or check the camber etc). Teetering on tiptoes when not experienced, male or female, will lead to a drop at some point and that bangs confidence. I still feel wary when i get on and off because I have such an issue - but as yoiu say keep moving and it ok
