6" 195 lbs need to lose some to get the power to weight up . I am told weight loss is the cheapest way to get run times down.

The double ton is looming

...my second favorite hobby instead of riding is making things dissapear...especially in the food range...waiters look terrified as i state my ordenr in a restaurant...you don't wanna have launch with me ...although the height is 1,80 cm and the weight is 66 kilos...people hate me for that....mostly girls..

38 yrs old, about 6'5", and I go between about 225 to 235. I should probably be around 195 or so I suppose. The bird is ok, but I kinda have long legs. It's hard to find bikes that fit me well. I couldn't get my dream "straightliner" bike, the Vmax, cause it was way too tiny. I was bummed. But then I found this bike, and it eased the pain...

6'4" and 265lbs. Just big everywhere. Compared to my ST, the BB is pretty cramped. I have ordered Buell pegs for it to hope for a little more room.

Currently 6'1'' and 133kg (293lb) @ 42 years old, I have always found the race rep type bikes too cramped and the Bird feels great although I did need VFR bars to help with the reach because of my gut and to help with hand/wrist problems
I was looking at a CBR1000F or an ST1100 before finding the Bird

I got up to 145kg (320lb) once about 15 years ago when doing a lot of weights and have been over 120kg (264lb) since I left high school ~27 years ago

I also don't put a lot of faith in the BMI index as even my last Dr stated that some people have bigger/denser bones or more muscle than others

According to the BMI I should be ~80-85kg and even my Dr said going that light would be unhealthy for me

Personally, I think you need some meat on your bones.

You guys crack me up. RLMAO.

I'm 6'2" and around 200 lb. 51. Swimmers build. At one time.

Dammit, I used to have an ass and I think it's changing places with my stomach. I'm starting to look like a pear with two sticks poked into the bottom of it.

I'd be an adonis with enough surgery and exercise.

5' 9" and 190lbs. Counting my armor 208lbs. 39 years young. Putting stunt sprockets (15 tooth front, 47 tooth rear drive)on my XX2 compensates for the extra lbs.
