By the way, if you think that I look big on the BB, you should see me when I am cruisin' the streets on my RUCKUS! Hard to pass up 90 mpg when I need to only cruise around in the city.

36 yrs old 5'11 and 110 kg. Mainly overweight in the stomach. Everywhere else is ok. I to have been told to lose weight by the good old Doc but it isnt easy as most of us know. The bird doesnt seem to mind the weight though from what I can see.

5'9", 190 pounds, 49 years young...doc says I need to weigh 165...too much Budweiser I suppose, but it sure is fun to putter around in the garage and have a few cold ones!

38 yo, 6'4 290 checking in..... I used to be in the 350Lb range, then I saw a pic of myself running a toll on the Garden State Parkway here in NJ....Thanks to EZ Pass and the very unflattering picture of my spare tire for putting me on a diet. I always thought my ZX 11-D was a big bike......oy!

6'2" 212lbs and no BB in my shed yet.My STeed doesn't notice my weight.She's heavy too but once underway we both get lite and do OK.She does a good job for a touring bike.Looking at those charts for BMI I believe I'm only supposed to be 190 lbs max.

BMI charts are only an indicator. My wifes coach was 5'7" and approx 340lb and has a BMI which the doctors called morbidly obese. I have to laugh when I hear that, coz when the measurement was taken, he was at 2.5 percent body fat, and ready to fly overseas to win the Mr Universe title for the second time. If you do any sort of strength excercise at all, then BMI is no longer accurate.

Dam you Americans

Do you no how long its taken to read/convert this thread from lbs - kg with me calculator

1.93m 88-92 kg = 198lbs

I'm a vegetarian so i don't have any weight issues

Tip= if ya want to lose weight, lose dairy and meat out of your diet then your body will find its ideal weight.

Been a vegie for 10yrs and my weight stays within that range depending how much exercise i do.

5' 10" & 95kg.

I think the bike feels small under me, but on the few occasions anyone else rides it, it looks freakin huge.

Aww C'mon give Brad a break. Surely he can peddle vegetarianism if it relates to motorcycles which in this case it seems to.

Try it before you speak against it. I guarantee that if planned correctly you'll feel a lot healthier on a vegetarian diet, more energy, live longer etc.

The difference would be like a HOG being a meat eater and a Blackbird being a healthy vegetarian.

I realise you are just having fun ...

more than happy for people to make their choices but options are good especially if they enable to ride your BB 7-8 more years

But don't get me started on Noah and the pig or else they may ban me

dam pigs most dirty disease ridden un healthy.........etccc
