What's your height and weight?
« Reply #30 on: August 11, 2004, 03:41:11 AM »
44years, 5'10" and 200lbs, optimum would be around 190lbs.  The KX is a perfect fit for me. I think it's attitude more than size that matters on the KX, look at Jeff Ward.  Back in the stone(d) age, I used to race against a guy who was so small he couldn't touch; had to stand on a milk crate at the starting line. Of course after the start no one saw him since he was soo far out in front. Cam.

old thread, just thought I'd chip in!! :)

5'4   155

The KX is a bit tall for me.  I'm working on getting the spring rates right, when the bike is tall to start with AND you have basically zero sag things are a lot worse!! :)  The irony eh?  The more need you have for it to be shorter, the more likely you are to have it taller.

Seriously though, its only tall when I'm trying to move it motor off (kill the motor, have to stop and help someone, etc)

I'd like to take about an inch and a half out of the seat, then it would be about perfect.........

Kinda funny when people look at you and say "can you kickstart that thing???"    and they can't! :)

I fall into that rather heavy category, but not a geezer!  I'm 18 at 6'2 and weighing in at an incredible 265 pounds.  The 500 suits my big frame very well.

6' 2" 40y.o. 245. The six pack look left many years ago. I am working on loosing 30lbs. I like the kx 500 alot, but am also looking for better (updated)ergos. I am seriously considering buying a newer 250 and transplanting the 500 heart.

The problem with getting older; you develop more "muscles" and your bones are becomming ever so brittle. It's not a good combo... Add a KX5 to the mix and broken bones is just a question of time.

I'm 180cm / 85 Kg (5'.9'' / 187 punds) with a beer belly & computer arms. I would like to think that I have the constitution of Mr Arigato - I can't claim that I have though. I look more like a skinny old git with a pot belly.
