I'm 6'1" barefoot, 6'3" in stilletos.....:p


And slumped over looking like the worlds coming to an end if you can't get your pot to smoke with your gay friends .. sheesh have you ever heard such crap :eek: REPENT and you will be forgiven .. by Clint anyway :rolleyes:
 
We're not as short as RayJay, but pretty short. The Beast is no problem. Having ridden the Diavel and the Rod, we must respectfully disagree with the consensus of the "experts" in the article. The Beast has it all over both of them. Cannot comment on the VMax.

We trudge on.
 
These type of comparisons are meaningless and I couldn't care where anyone puts a Rocket compared to those other three; they're not in the same league. They're not even really comparable to each other. Instead of a Rocket they should maybe have gone for a M109 to put against them.

To my thinking, the Rocket's in a class on its own, and in that company it wins hands down.

Well said, my friend!
 
I am 5-7 and after lowering the beast about an inch I can place both feet on the ground. No issues. I agree, the Rocket is in a class by itself. No doubt these dweebs get some kick back from other manufacturers.

Apparently, Triumph does not give out any payola.
 
5' 10" - 190 lbs and I have no problem handling it, even two up when it is a bit more top heavy. As a matter of fact there is a girl I work with on occasion that rides a GSXR 1000...she's about 5' 2" tall and aggravates the $hit out of me for a turn on the Rocket every time I ride it to work. She has to tip toe on the GSXR but she rides it like she stole it and apparently has bigger cojones than the girly men in the article. If I thought she could handle a stop at a light without falling over I would probably let her take it for a spin
 
Forgot , i'm under 6 foot tall and was running 1 inch longer shocks up until a few weeks ago. The bloke I watched wobbling around yesterday had to be 6"1 or taller. Really not a height thing in my opinion.

Agreed. Core strength is more important I reckon. I'm 6'1 and 90kgs (200lb)

Yeah bro, I'm a little pissed at myself for letting it get to me. :rolleyes:
