Lightbulb New Bike Sizing

Here's an interesting site for checking out "new bike" fit.

Motorcycle Ergonomics

Note that you use the + and - tabs to change the values in the boxes.

I can't comment on the accuracy, but it's interesting to see how any changes in bar height, pullback, and seat height changes seating positions.

Also, I'm not so certain about the "preferred arm straightness" % thing, so I leave it at about 90%??? I'm guessing it should be a relaxed, maybe 80 to 90% figure? Comments?

Have fun!

Ride Safe!

Bob
