ShaneR95 Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Hi I have been looking for a 125cc for a small commute between two local towns so about 20 to 30 miles a day. I am 6ft 5 and have been looking at the Honda VT Shadow 125 or the Yamaha XVS 125 Dragstar so my question is what would you say is the best bike for someone my size and journeys like mine.

geofferz Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 One with a bigger engine, ideally!Otherwise the biggest 125 you can find. You need to go get your leg over them for size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magpie84 Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 I'm just shy of 6"1' but I have a 36' inside leg and I love my little yamaha ybr 125. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am 6'2 and used to have a yamaha mt125 which was fine; it's the 30 miles a day that concerns me - might get tiring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
