My SV was pretty low - I had dropped the forks and the preload, lower seat, longer links, Daytona Ladystar boots and I put a full race exhaust system on it to make it lighter and after all that I was STILL on tip toes!

I can fully recommend the GSX-R600K6. I had pretty much given up on finding a sportsbike that I could ride as standard, Flamin Squirrel had a gixxer K6 as a courtesy bike which he came to Selkent on andI sat on and I was amazed I could touch the floor. So I test rode one and that as they say, was that. Its great to ride.

Have you considered a Virago? Nice forgiving bike for the ladies
