Hi,
I'm quite tall @ 190-195cm (6'3-6'4) and wanted to know if anyone is also a similar height and made any mods to their bikes.
I am considering installing lowering pegs such as Pivot Pegs. I have them on my KTM640 Adventure and really like them as i have large feet so a much larger area to support whilst standing. I was also considering handlebar risers but after listening to a podcast with Chris Birch (KTM ambassador) today about setting up your bike, he has a dislike for risers and gives some good advice on them (he is 188cm - 6'2), so I am going to play around first with existing bars and the positions they can be moved to. I figure if I just live with how it comes first, ride for a 1000kms and get a feel for it, then make mods if I think its required.
So if anyone has some comments or wants to share what they have done that would be great. I'm waiting to pick up my bike, one week to go! Getting excited now.
