Advice for a 32 incher? ;)

[V15HAL]

Perve!

32 inch inside leg (33 inch with boots on i guess), about 5'9'' tall and slim/med build...

Looking for my first big bike and have narrowed it down to these:
SV650
GSXR 600
CBR 600
YZF600 Thudercat
Bandit

So before I go and sit on one in a showroom, I was wondering if I could get some pointers on which of the above I would definately NOT fit on... At least that way I can narrow down my search criteria if need be.

Cheers!

I'd throw the bandit off the list tho, in comparison to the other bikes you've got there, it'll feel like a shithouse.

I have a 30" inside leg and I don't have an issue on any of those bikes.

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

You're about the same measurements as me, so you'll fit fine. You'll be able to place both feet on the floor. At the best, you don't have to tip toe on any of the bikes.

*hopes he can flat foot when he goes to check out a CBR 600 F (1998) tomorrow*

[Gazdaman]

I can flat foot a KTM 950SM with my knees bent

You'll be fine on all of those above bikes. Quite often it's not the seat height but the width of the seat that makes the difference.
