Quick poll,

How tall are you and what mods have you made to your Uly to accommodate?

Thanks!

I'm 6' with a 32" inseam. I wear thick soled boots so I can reach the ground when I stop!

Does that help?

I am 5' 8". My list of modifications include hitting cars, almost sliding off a cliff, getting stuck while crossing a river, and countless other things I can't remember off the top of my head. Best mod I did was get an 1125CR.

I'm 6'4 and 120Kg all I've changed is the handle bars to slightly lower ones with out the crossbar so that I'm not in the wind as much and I can see the instruments

I'm 6'5" with a 36" inseam and ride with the low stock seat and tall stock wind screen. I have found for me at least, Icon helmets are the most aerodynamic for me and I don't need any additional changes!

My rear Strada's get 15,000 miles and I get 65 miles per gallon.

5'8" with 32" inseam. Yes - I have no torso.

I ride a stock 09 XT and can't quite flatfoot it when the suspension is set up for my 135 lbs. Doesn't matter too much to me, I adjusted to riding a tall bike pretty quickly and for a while now have been riding with the preload front and rear set up for 280 lbs. I love the tall, in charge feeling of the bike being that tall.
