Any tall people (6ft 2 and over) ride a Street Triple

[smiles1]

Wondering if any fellow lanky people (over 6ft 2") on this forum ride a Street Triple and if they find it comfy enough or is it considered a bike for the lesser vertically gifted!

I'm 6ft 1" and have a street triple. I'm sure I would be comfortable if I grew an inch overnight.

As that doesn't entirely answer your question I recommend you get to your local dealer and have a test ride, you won't regret it.

I'm 6'3 (and a half) inches and have had 2 street triples. Perfectly comfortable and great fun.

Mate of mine is 6-2/6-3 & about 16 stone + & is on his second street Triple, (an RS) - loves it to bits

Don’t own one but have ridden both 675’s and 765’s. I’m 6’4” and mostly leg and find them fine. A lot more comfortable than my gen 2 Tuono and that’s a bigger bike in general but the pegs feel fk loads higher.

I did also have a Speed Triple out for a day and that was more comfortable, but I haven't had any issues with my Street. It does have the comfort seat which I think is slightly higher.

My first bike in 2009 was a Street Triple, I sold it after a year because the wind was catching my knees and forcing my legs apart, making it annoying on long rides. And I wanted a Daytona, which was comfier for me. Then I got a Speed Triple which has better wind protection for your legs (just because it’s bulkier) and that was also fine.

I’m 6’3”.

Thanks all, test ride planned

The 2018 model has a slightly higher seat height than previous models (20mm) but ideally I'd not like to buy new so need to find a used model for a test ride.
