How do you go riding standing up on that thing Azrael? I'm 6'4", I've put BIG risers on it 40mm up and 30mm forward. Could probably still be a bit higher though.

Im 6'4 as well, i find its not too bad as i use a really high bend bar but im looking into some new pegs that are for taller riders that are apparently set back 10mm and down 10. Aparently that makes a huge difference so ill let ya know how i go.

[WATEVR]

hey Azreal what bend are you running because at 6'3 i am tossing up between risers or different bend on the bars. keep us posted on the pegs also.

[pappas]

Azreal, Yeah let me know how you go, that would make shifting a bit easier to!

Watevr, my risers made a huge difference to standard! I got them from Ballards they cost $90 but they are the best thing I've bought for the bike!

If you zoom in you can see the risers on this photo.

That's one way to park your bike without a stand!

Yeah, I can't even ride my mate's YZ450. He's 60kg fully geared! Bit hard to fit size 15's under the small gear lever he has on it!

I'm also shopping for as my mates say "Truck springs" for the bike as 120kg on stock springs isn't going to well. You guys recommend anyone? I'm leaning towards Teknik.
