Do not put off living the life you dream of. Next year may never come. If we are always waiting for something to change...
Retirement, the kids to leave home, the weather or the economy, that's not living. That's waiting!
Waiting will only leaves us with unrealized dreams and empty wishes.
I currently have a 06 gsxr 750 and a 07 gsxr 600. I really do like the Gsxr's and i think the Hondas are very close in a lot of ways.
I cant wait to race one.

(Though if the 675 had a single sided swingarm it would be even sexier.)
Love my Daytona (955cc). Need to get it back on the road by summer.
Be assured that a walk through the ocean of most souls would scarcely get your feet wet.
Wyck, I'm not sure how height challenged you are but I am 5'4 (and a quarter).
The Yamaha's were way too tall for me, Kawi's were better but still too tall. So I'm a Suzuki girl for just that reason.
However, whichever bike you choose, don't forget that you can also have the seat shaved.
I shaved mine down A LOT on the sides and a good amount in the center. It helped a ton in giving me the feeling of being better planted when I come to a stop.
I'm not sure if that's something that would help you or not, just thought I would throw it out there just in case.

I'm 5'6 and the only bike I could flat foot sitting straight up was the gsxr. CBR and Kawi I could when leaned forward and the r6 was like getting on a horse but without stirrups. I have never heard about having the seat shaved hmmm....

I took the entire 2 or 3 inches of foam off my seat and replaced it with a gel pad that I bought from a custom bike shop for like $50
Great alternative to lowering the bike...altho I still had to lower it 3 inches...cuz I'm short

Why has noone told me these things?!?!?!I guess that's what I get for not knowing any girl riders before now.

Also, instead of using a lowering link of any kind, you can adjust the back spring. That's good for a couple centimeters too.
So between that and seat shaving, at your height, you will be just fine sister.

You Umpa Lupmas shouldn't be riding bikes anyway.
It's little people like you all that make it so hard for us "normal" people to find bikes that fit.
(runs and hides.....)
