September 16, 200519 yr Author Compared to the older XT's it's a lot better, but you won't get Strom levels of pillion comfort cos that's not really what it's built for.

September 17, 200519 yr I'm 5'11" and I got no problems.....how tall are you then? around 1.72m...so that's around 5'8" i think....damn stubby legs!!!
September 17, 200519 yr Author around 1.72m...so that's around 5'8" i think....damn stubby legs!!! I'm 1.79 but I've got long legs for my height (34") so I get both feet down on the XTR. XT Alan's about your height and he managed OK with his though.
September 19, 200519 yr I'm 1.79 but I've got long legs for my height (34") so I get both feet down on the XTR. XT Alan's about your height and he managed OK with his though. mmm....it's such a cool looking bike too...damn, damn...think I'm gonna pop down to my local Yamaha dealer and give it a sit....
October 24, 200519 yr unfortunately it's just a tad high...only slightly. I think i'll give the street version a try..they didn't hav any in stock though... I sat on the MT-01 and the Fazer though..mmmm.. Still really sad about not fitting the XT, though....<sigh>
