ShaneR95 Posted March 16, 2019 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. Quote
geofferz Posted March 16, 2019 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
Magpie84 Posted March 16, 2019 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
