6'3" 235. I really loved by younger brother's SV650 but it was way too cramped. The V Strom fits me perfectly. Everything else seems more cramped than usual.

5'11" (180 cm)
155 lbs (70 kg)
45 years (how much is that in metric?)

I can just barely flat-foot the Wee, and have serious crosswind issues on occasion -- taking the shield off helps.

Guess I'd better gain about 100 lbs. (45kg) if I want the Wee to handle the way it should.

I just weighed the other day and was a robust 176#. That puts me about 185# in my riding gear.

My height is currently a bit over 5'10" but shrinking a bit every year.

Ride safe.

74.5", 207 lbs (and falling), 42 years old.

Looks like the media for weight is somewhere around 200 lbs, so I'm afraid find a bunch of Stromers to stand around is not going to make me look much slimmer.
