My names Babs and I'm looking for some help from you lot.

I'm going to be sitting my full licence in 3 weeks and I have 4 bikes on my list I would like to test the seated position and fit and a bit of a chat about your personal feelings on your bike. Don't worry I will not be asking to test ride your baby. I can do that when I have my full licence and find someone that is actually selling the bike. So if you live anywhere area the Auckland area from Dury to Silverdale so if you have some spare time and one of the follow machines please drop me a message.
-Kawasaki Z800
-CBR600RR
-CBR600F4i
-VFR800

Text me on -mod edit, personal contact details removed- or drop me a message here other wise if you know of a dealer in Auckland that has one of these bikes please drop a message in this thread.

I currently ride a CBR500R without any problems and I'm 6'2 and 103kg.

I've removed your mobile number, not wise to list publicly. We're also not TM, so don't bother with commas and other gibberish.

Thanks, Gremlin, I'm not worried about my number being listed publicly, I understand the implications of such actions. Would the best way for a fellow user to contact me here be via the DM's on the forums or posting here? I'm asking so I can edit my original post myself.

Your ability to personal message any member in these forums will be possible after your post count comes up a bit. 25 posts (I think ... but don't quote me on that as I have been known to be wrong). However ... the forum members CAN personal message you, and you can reply to them.

The forums CAN be viewed by those that are not members, so no control over such people reading anybody's post.

Perfect! That's all I need :) thanks FJRider.

Yes, thankfully these forums can be viewed by those that are not members, I googled "bikes for taller riders" and a thread on here popped up. :)

Take a look through the exiting forum threads ... there were a few on the subject of taller rider suitable bikes. Some in the learner rider category.

There is a "Search" button near top-right ... but it can seem be tricky to use sometimes.

Taller riders might cope better with it ... :shifty:

weirdo....


BTB the VFR is so different to the other bikes by farmy pic... more a classy tourer over a straight sports bike, having said that the 97 viffer I had reamed a few sports bikes out LOL
