I think you are 6'2 and 190cm tall

@birdland85 3 года назад

I'm 6'5 and I just bought a Honda s wing 125 and I love it. I finally feel normal and comfortable.

@johninphx9360 6 лет назад

Thank you so much! not much info for tall people out there!

@diabolikhunter 4 года назад

Really helpful to understand the important aspect of choosing the scooter.

@natanaelcordeiro2995 5 лет назад

Advice: Enter the names of the manufacturers and models of the respective scooters being displayed, as well as additional information, such as the cylinder capacity of each one. This makes viewing the video more interesting

@knzw25 3 года назад

also include rim/tire/wheel size. 16- or 17-inch wheels are preferred. I don't even consider scooters with rim sizes under 15 inches, eg Piaggio BV 350, Honda ADV-X with 14-inch rear wheel.

@cemalettinozturk6614 4 года назад

An exellent axplanatory video for long sizes. Thankyou

@paisley3518 5 лет назад

Thanks for this video. It helped me to answer a lot of questions since I am a very tall guy who wants a scooter. There are really only two scooters out there for tall people. The Suzuki Burgman and the BMW 650.

@bilithequid7543 5 лет назад

Susuki burgman is a GT scooter , well .. expensive. If you are looking for less expensive scooter, the honda forza is quite good for tall people. Good vidéo

Thanks for this video, so you liked the seating on the burgman 400 better than on the Tmax 530Dx. Have you tried the xmax400 ? I think it was the xmax300 in your video.

Last year I bought xmax 250 and sold it after 1 week due to my 1.70 height. Its too high for me to manage properly/control. So, now, I’m happy with my burgman 200 with 74cm.seat lenght☺️

@gregsimpson9391 5 лет назад

This was extremely useful and validates my choice for a BMW C650 GT. I think you gave it a thumbs up - I took a punt hat the Germans would design it for larger people and for a pinion passenger. I pick mine up this week.

@parishm 5 лет назад

maintenance and service costs are ridiculous for the BMW, go with the burgman 650 Executive !

@gregsimpson9391 5 лет назад

The Bergman would fit but what a truck!!

@barryervin8536 3 года назад

Some of the bigger scooters that have decent leg room have handle bars that come too far back and make you lean backwards. The Honda Forza is an example of that. That would kill my back on a long ride.

@mirkuza5952 3 года назад

@motomogzauri 2 года назад

in the list there was BMW C400x and if you know is C400GT more comfortable for tall people?

@staninjapan07 6 лет назад

Interesting, thanks. I didn't think you were going to try the small scooters, around 50~150cc. You didn't give a label for the Yamaha T-Max 530DX at 9:43 Looks like you enjoyed yourself there.

The driver's butt rest on the burgman is removable. Without it, you can stretch out and have a super comfortable ride.

@JQUICK21 2 года назад

I'm getting a scooter in May of 2022 which is next month. I am 6' tall and I don't want to feel like I am on a child's bike or scooter! It seems we can buy a seat that is flat all the way back and so we can scoot our butt back further to stretch our legs out more. I also would try to install some sort of foot pegs out front as far as possible to get my feet out front more.

@jrnumex9286 4 года назад

@JQUICK21 2 года назад

I am sure you can get a seat that is flat the whole way back....I know for sure you can get one for the Honda PCX....

@kabardinka1 5 лет назад

I'm 6' tall and have a long inseam. I've found the Piaggio BV series to be the best scooter for tall people. Burgmans are terrible if you're tall. Vespa GTS 250/300 are pretty good but not as good as Piaggio. I used to own a SYM HD 200 and that's good for tall people. Most scooters are way too cramped and you will feel it on a longer ride. :(

@JQUICK21 2 года назад

You may be right on some points here....but I am sure there are aftermarket seats that are flat all the way back and so you can scoot your butt back further to get your feet out front of you much more and not feel like you are on a child's bike.....this is 2022 and so I am not going to comment on the BMW scooter that people here seem to choose over the rest.....but it seems that Kymco makes the BMW scooter and it is more expensive with the BMW name on it....like $2000 more!.....I'm looking at either a SYM or Kymco scooter and I am 6' tall....if I don't like how it feels for my legs I will add a seat that helps with that.

@spikey2740 5 лет назад

Considering your height, I am surprised you were including any scooter smaller than 250 or 300 cc. The video would have been more meaningful if you had started with the largest ones and worked toward the smaller ones. Once you reached those too small, there was no reason to continue. By the way, which ones did you prefer?

@chevaraobaidjnath-panday9331 2 года назад

To be honest i seen none for tall they all look so funny when a tall man sits on it! I would like to.see a scooter with more height

@luizmkv6963 5 лет назад

Useless video if no comments of which one fitted you better, I am 6´2" and the Vespa 300 is very comfortable for tall riders in a compact package, Nmax is roomy as well , BMW 650 GT (Not Sport) and 2017+ Tmax (Not prior models that have a low handlebar ) are the most comfortable but too big for commuting unless you do a lot of highway.

@surlyogre1476 5 лет назад

He showed the scooters in order from least comfortable to most comfortable for him. I'm a little bit taller, 6'5" (197 cm) so I would be most interested in the cycles shown last. YMMV I found this video interesting and useful. Thumbs UP.

@william38022 6 лет назад

So what’s the best one

@staninjapan07 6 лет назад

As he said, the least suitable bikes were first and the most suitable were last, so bike number one is most suitable. That's a 2018 Suzuki Burgman 650 LX (here in Japan it is called a Skywave).

@goru426 4 года назад

Travelmoto most of the scooters you try are not the problem, you are the problem. The distance between your knee and heel is very tall. Every time you sit on a scooter your knees sit higher than your butt, that forces your body into a backward tilt position. To resolve that problem you need to get a cushion that is at least 2" tall, that will fix your posture and force it into a forward lean. You are welcome!
