hi
recently had my cbr125 stolen and so was thinking of getting a gt125r.from what i can find the stated seat height is 780mm compared with 776mm of the cbr.as people keep saying that the hyosung is a large bike will it be to big for me as i only have short legs-29inch.so if anybody has one can you please advise.cant get to try one yet as there are no dealers locally.thanks in advance

I imagine, like Ben's mother, width is going to be more of an issue.

They'll be quite wide bikes, judging from the map it might be worth you coming down to Warrington Motorcycles of a weekend and having a sit on one matey.

Ive sat on a CBR125 in my local honda garage and god they are small and thin, so the hyosung may feel very large to you but i cant see why you woudent be able to get both feet ( or at least one) on the floor.

best thing to do is to have a sit on one as people have said.

The width and weight can be just as relevant. I'm a short arse and did my CBT on a CG125 - seat height is 781mm and it felt fine.

I bought a Honda Varadero 125, seat height is 800mm. Not a huge difference but the Varadero feels MUCH bigger as it's heavier and wider, the difference is huge, the Vara feels literally twice as big.

You need to go and sit on one. If the size feels intimidating then you might be best giving it a miss unless you feel you'll get used to it pretty quick.
