How about this..

Cool! I always had high hopes this would get produced. But a MSRP of $35k is a bit salty.

18" seat height!  Here's the road test.

I've seen really little Asian guys riding around on these little crotch rockets.  I don't know what they were but they must've had like 12  or 13 inch wheels.  I think they were street legal too.  They looked really goofy

How about this..

the seat on that first black one looks like a massage table. what are those anyhow?

[Really?]

Still waiting to see how flat footed the wife is on her bike.  Got the 16" rim laced and trued .3mm up/down and sideways.  Gotta git a tire on it to see for sure.  It shore looks perty all shiny n stuff.  She is 5'4" or 5"6", don't tell her that I am not sure, lol.  It is a lotta work to get a 750k down that low, fer me anyway.

Those slammed bikes look perty sweet.

here's 2 ways to fix your problem.
                          1. this bike
                          2. these shoes

this is probably what you saw... late 80's early 90s yamaha ysr50... there was also a gsxr50


nice idea mcrider... although, i think she might have trouble seeing over the gas tank/dash.

re: the Alligator? A situation where the seat is actually too low!  She could sit on a telephone book.

i went to the dealer today and looked at a rebel. wow, those are low bikes. i don't see a reason to flat foot both feet as long as you can get one foot down either side without complications. after a few hours of riding, it'll come second nature.

oh, pocket rockets are another option.  they're street legal here as far as i know. as long as it has a headlight and under 50cc/35mph, it's good to go. seen college kids ride them to class and back.

Maybe a trike?

wonder why the person on the back is wearing a weight belt?  i guess they're not just for scuba diving.

Wow, good observation.




Darn, now that's gonna bother me...
