OK, is there a story I missed this past weekend concerning 5_19?

I first heard it yesterday and again now today.  Handles need a story behind them.

Share it with the rest of us.

5'19" is kinda like 6'7". I'm just guessing as I just got the condensed visit in Saturday, but TJ is hanging out in that realm of the upper atmospheres. ~Jeff

Oh, yeah.  I remember that.  I was there.  Boy, it is tough getting old and forgetful.

Like my mother said to me about two years ago.  'The older I get, the better my fergetter gets'.

I might have figured it out if it was 5'19"

Hey! That's my line!

(I like to tell people I'm 5'19" when they ask me how tall I am... Been using that line for years!)

;)

i took to telling people i was 5'13" in high school.  i don't get asked that question as often anymore, but still... it's fun to watch them go sideways for a bit doing the math and computing it in conventional terms.

Serk, it may be your line, but now it's my handle. Most people swear I am at least 6'. Serk how do you have your bike set up to accomodate those limbs? Handle bars, pegs, seat and windshield? I use Rattlebars peg lowering kit, extra tall Clearvieuw, stock seat and stock handle bars and that is fairly ok. Oh and also a 205/65(tallest car tire) and I am still flat footed!


Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handlebars to the saddle.
