780mm.

If you're anything much above 155cm you should be ok. If you can ride a stock ZZZR250 no worries at all I would think 8).

You should be fine, if Colette can ride one, anyone can 8).

I'm 5'5" and can flat foot the bike and I have really short legs. I had a GPX250 before my ZZR600 and even though the ZZR600 is 20mm higher on paper it was not much difference at all.

NEKA Is it true that small things fit in small packages, and not only come often, but fast??? :shock: (THE DEVIL ME SAY THAT).

Anyways, I WIN THE SHORT COMPETITION. I'm just toucing 5 foot and I too ride a ZZR 600, although its about 2 inches shorter than standard.

I like winnin stuff. Is there a prize??? Some platforms maybe??? :P
