I have that probelm to, the thing is Im not too tall or too short. Its that I have a MoHawk so it touches the ceiling.

Damn, I am. Whenever I have passenger and if they sit right behind me. I feel sorry for them cause my legs are so damn long that I need a lot of room. So I actually would have to pull the seat all the way, well, almost all the way back just to get in a comfortable position to drive. I'm 6 ft.

BOVADDICT · 02-28-2006

ya 6'4" and thinking about throwin a cage in soon. So well see how it goes tomorrow with lse on making custom brackets and what not. I dont wanna lean back while racing or just driving. I just want to fit comfortable w/ leaning like a thug or scrunching up like a turtle in its shell..

Anyway ill let you guys know how it goes.

Just to let you lanky guys/gals know, they do make this fabulous model called the Spyder. Tons of head space.

It's just as bad in the stupid conquest. I'm 6'3" also, and I've never been comfy in my car. Luckily, I haven't had the option of driving it for a long time. I hate reclining back like a sweet thug - makes people look retarded IMO. Leg room is what gets me with the car though. I think the 2g beats me out in that though...terrible leg room. I always found my buddies 1g very roomy though.

**waits for khadgar to comment how the driver's area is like a cockpit**

shoot I couldnt even get the motorcycle I wanted (R6) because they couldn't lower it enough for me. So I had to settle for a GSXR because they can lower it enough. Even with it lowered all the way with a drag link mind you; I need to either wear 3" heels or shave me seat to have my feet flat on the ground

I wish I was like 5'6" lol

Yah, I'm only 5 ft. I've been trying to find a bike. Pretty sure I can't fit on anything.

lowering links on a bike do wonders

your best bet is to go with a 250cc right now.. They're already really low, buy the bike and that's it. Plus if it's your first bike you'll be all good! Like I said even with the lowering drag link I still need to wear 3 inch chunky heels.

Yah one bike I fit on famously was the Ninja 250. I wasn't to impressed when I heard their speed ratings though. Which is why I think I'll stick with cars for now. Just until I can afford to get something a little more interesting.

I'm 6 foot. In my 2G with a sunroof i have about 1/2 " between my head and the head liner. With a helmet on it sucks, trying to auto x with a sideways view of the world. My 1G with a sun roof, and 2 's without sunroos seam to be better.

Emcee gsxtc · 03-04-2006

I'm 6'2" and I don't have much of a problem ever, I don't drive like a thug, but I have long legs so my seat is all the way back, with the back rest at like a 70 degree angle. Helmets on the other hand suck, and my plans for a cage could ruin my comfortable driving abilities so it will be interesting.
