1.83 meters or 2 yards or 6 feet or 72 inches.

2013 Ninja 650 and I'm 6'2" without issue of discomfort. Still no discomfort after swapping to sports bars, still no discomfort after swapping to clip-ons below the triples.

Giants, you're all GIANTS! Ehhhh... 5'4 (1.63 meters). Although the bike has always been comfortable, being "vertically challenged" as I am I've found the position and angle of the sv650s clip-ons to be more accommodating and a vast improvement with my stature. I'm not sure how you taller riders deal with the peg distance, though. It really feels like they're perfect for my length (29" in-seam) but I mostly ride with my feet on the rear pegs. It's like I drop into the bike rather than sit on it. To each his/her own.

I don't think you're supposed to wear your bike, jeffe.
