more a question of how wide...ask yer mate Jewell! I am 5'8 but with one foot on the floor, my other is about 8" off the ground (at least!) hence wobbly if I dont plan ahead for stops.

I have also looked at the ride height adjuster and there is space to lower a bit. Going to have a go this week (hopefully) and see if it makes much difference. Will probably drop the front by one ring as well - then its the same as the 748 was (5 clear rings) If this fails, probably have to reverse the chain adjuster, at least this should take an inch off.

Alternatively, sell it and buy a harley!
