I currently ride a Yamaha R3 (320cc) which I can flat foot on one foot or touch my toes on both sides. I'm 5'4, and wear 30inch inseam jeans. The Yamaha is 780mm in seat height, and the 959 is 830mm, that's a 50mm height difference (2 inches). How tough would it be for me to ride a stock 959? It's been my dream bike ever since the 899 days, and I'm looking to get one in a couple of years time (I believe in setting goals). Maybe this comes off as another short rider thread, but I would really appreciate real owner feedback. How many of you are short riders?
I would prefer not to lower the bike, though getting a different seat is possibly my first preference and maybe adjust the sag?
