Hi everyone! Tall dude wants a 250 that fits

[Zuki lover]

If you don't fit it due to size, you can get an endorsement/exemption from the POLICE.

......... go get a 1000cc

[Conquiztador]

You are 6'1" and 95Kg, 31 years old and heaps of dirtbike experience.

My oldest son is 6'2" and 75Kg, was 18 years old and had dirtbike experience since small. I put him on a GN250, took a pic, then I put him on a NV400 and took a pic. We submitted a request for expemption based on his size and also as he worked late at the bar, an exemption at same time for riding later than the Restricted allowed. We included information re his dirt bike riding and had a couple of referees. NOTE: He had already completed his Learners and done the training.

He got his exemption and was allowed to ride the NV400, also to and from work outside the Restricted limitations.

I know I will get shot down here by the saefty brigade. I am not suggesting an exemption is for everyone. But for smeone that clearly knows how to ride a bike and (I suspect) already has a car license and been on the road for many years, it is a nobrainer.

You can go up to 600cc. There is somewhere a list of bikes you can not get an exemption for.

Your call.

Good Luck!

If you are a tall dude - seriously look at 250 Trail bikes.

They have better tall ergos, are potentially more fun and can be turned into a motard.

As this man said !!!! a Street legal 250 trail bike with road tires will suit you ,may be a higher geared back sprocket. when you get your full then the bike world is you oyster . Regards Richard

He is right. Those other bikes will be very cramped for you for any distance.
You could look at something like a KLX250 but the seat aint so good for distance. Or a TTR etc. Performance wise you wont notice to much difference around town. but its down to what pushes your buttons at the end of the day.
