Great video! Don’t be intimidated by some of the taller Ducatis if you are shorter like me(5’6”). I bought a 14’ Hypermotard SP from Marty years ago and it was a blast commuting on it everyday.
Thanks Jordan!!
Hey thanks for info! What was the seat hight on that hyper? Thinking of buying myself one to but dont know if it fits me 🥺
@@jua_hypetems1316 I have a 30 inch inseam and the Hyper SP is pretty comfortable for me. 1 cheek off I can have 1 foot flat. Getting both toes down is fine
5'6 here with a Streetfighter V4 SP and Multi V4 Pikes Peak. Tiptoes all the way but no problems whatsoever. Careful with the Multi though it's a bit weighty.
I’m 5-6” and grew up riding motocross bikes. The Hypermotard is what I have my eyes on. It’s shorter than my dirt bikes and I don’t think I have ever ridden anything that I could touch both feet to the ground. Looks rowdy
Well done guys, this was a great video and really informative. Also love the discipline you have in the way the showroom is laid out. All 1st class!
Much appreciated!
Great video. Thank you for doing this. It’s extremely helpful for us short folks. 👍🏾 I sat on a Desert X this weekend and was completely surprised I could one foot it with the other on the peg at 5’6” with a 29” inseam. It felt a lot lighter than I thought it would be too.
just a great video. its like youre reading everyones mind in content we need.
especially these days when a lot of dealerships (especially in korea) dont have a lot of display models due to the problems in the global supply chain. cant say enough as im binging all your videos. cheers
8:07 on the multistrada I think you said "left foot down, not supposed to, gear side." Actually, what you did is correct in most cases, left foot down and right foot on rear brake and in 1st gear.
Best video of the channel yet.
Thanks Batman!
Thanks for this. Very helpful in setting expectations across the models.
Hi guys, what a great idea for a video. You are so right about not being able to check riding ground clearance on a complete range, Ducati or otherwise.
I am still waiting for my V2S after waiting 6 months and have been concerned about the standard 32” seat, since I have been riding a Multi for 8 years with the 33” seat. Checked with the dealer and they recommended I go with the taller seat, but they never suggested that when I ordered. I am 6’3” so was worried that when the bike arrived (God knows when!) my riding position would not be optimal.
Your video has pretty much confirmed my concerns.
I note your comments about the current delivery situation. It is the same here in Western Australia where Ducati can’t even give me an accurate delivery!
This was very helpful for a vertically challenged man like me. Thanks for putting this video out!!
Great video.
You deserve all the success in your business.
Perfect video. Exactly what I was searching for.
Glad it helped!
With my 28” inseam, I’m envious of both you guys. This was a very cool video, though.
I’m on the same boat buddy 🥲🥹
This was an extremely helpful video! Thanks!
Really informative video; thanks from here in Scotland.
Thanks Tim!
Thank you very much. Please do more videos like this!
That's a very cool video. You should do one showing your body position from the side on each bike to see the lean angle and the hip and knee angles.
Nice one guys! Always nice to see how the bikes fit for shorter dudes like myself!
Thanks! 👍
Excellent video thank you.
I’m 6’3 33” inseam…. I’ve been looking at the monster. Thank you for this video!!
Good choice!
I got the lower seat on my 22 Hyper and makes such a massive difference for confidence 👍🏻👍🏻
The lowered seat options really do help. Thanks for your comment. 🍻
Super helpful video. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for this video.
Man you are my inspiration as short rider department!
I love the Hypermotard 950 but this life is not for me, but I already bought Hyperstrada 939 2016 and, man I am so excited to ride anywhere anytime
The standard seat on the hyper only doesnt have a lot of padding because of the plastic shaping inside of it. The lowered seat has a different shaped plastic molding and has just as much cushion, if not slightly more
Very helpful. Thank you.
Another great video, such a great line up of bikes….. and very interesting for us with little legs 😂
Glad you enjoyed it
Very helpful. Thanks!
This is awesome guys. I was about to call and ask Marty's height as I am part of the vertically challenged crew. Want a second scrambler but this time a Desert Sled...Desert X is sick but way too big for me. Hello from 🇨🇦
Nice video, it gives me an idea what Ducati I will buy.
Glad we could help!
I’m 5’2” and got the 21 supersport with lowered seat I ride it perfectly fine
Appreciate your comment Jay. We made this video to help those who are not able to swing a leg over all the bikes at their local dealer and to show that they should not be intimidated by the larger bikes especially with the lowered seat options from Ducati!
Been trying to find a good tail tidy for it. What do you recommend?
Magic video!!!!
I'm 5'3". You ain't vertically challenged bruh.
6'6 here
Im 5ft 6 with a 29inch inseam. Rides a 2021 1290 SAS, all standard. 850mm seat height. Same as my previous bike, 2018 v strom 1000.
I have a 2022 Hyper SP and and a 29in inseam. Of course I ordered the factory Lo seat which is a little better. But still way too tall.
So what I did was I took the factory seat and modified it just like I've had to do with every tall motorcycle I've ever owned. Right now I'm sitting on one cm of jell straight off the seat pan this may sound uncomfortable but it actually isn't now I wouldn't want to do any 300-mile trips on it though. What you got to do is take some Gorilla Glue spray adhesive glue the factory foam down to the seat pan and then you take a bread knife and carve it all the way down to the pan you have to do this because the Ducati factory seat pan is not flat like most motorcycles. Got A large piece of gel off of eBay and laid it in the cut out area trimmed everything to fit. So now with just one centimeter of gel I can get my one foot down pretty well on the pavement not so much of a balancing act anymore when I come to a stop.
This modified seat is about one and a half inch lower than the factory Lo seat.
Which is about as good as it gets.
Good video. I would of liked to see a side profile of all the bikes
OMG thanks. Im currently on Tracer 9GT but I think I'll go multistrada v4s next year. I was riding streetfigther v2 of mine friend for few weeks. I'm 175cm tall and it was looking exactly how you look on streetfighter. Now I'm 100% sure multistrada will be ok in case of my height :)
Thanks for this. Would’ve been even better if you had a third with a longer inseam and then also showed the rider triangle from the side of the bike with a foot on the peg.
Good video, thanks
You're welcome
Thank you
Thanks for this. Really helpful. Going from the Multi 1260s to the Panigale v4s -what is the rider triangle like on the v4s? Distance between peg and seat? I am also vertically challenged 5’7” - no problem riding the older Multi. & no problem on the short test ride of the v4s. Just wondering what you think?
Wish these companies make them all low seat with a high seat option. Some of these bikes have no more room for low seat but you can alway add height.
From my experience, it's not just about the seat height, but also how wide the seat is. A few years ago, I was on the market for either the Ducati Hypermotard 950, or the Aprilia Dorsoduro 900. Despite the Hypermotard 950 being lower than the Dorsoduro 900 by the specs, I can't tippy toe both sides of the Hyper, but I can on the Dorso so I chose the Dorso 900 in the end, and never looked back.
Hi Marty / Colby. Great Video! I belong to your club Marty, i am also 5"7 and i would like to know what are the options for lowering the MS1200 as i am aiming to buy a second hand one. Less thicker seat? Suspension? Thank you
If possible, could you show videos sitting on the bikes with the low seat options. I’m especially interested in the Streetfighter v4
Maybe in the future 👍 It's best to stop by your local Ducati dealer and have them prep a SFV4 with the lowered seat so you know first hand the difference.
Thanks for the info finally not intimidated by the seat height but can't afford it anyways
Hey guys. Thank you for the great video. I’m the same height as Marty. Can you give any feedback on Streetfighter 848? And also how good is it for a two up ride. Thank you.
I am 6.5 and the desert sled is perfect
hyper is the beautiful one!
Can i know how seat height of panigale V4S? Btw it's a great video😆
I have an M1200R and a MTS1260PP both tall bikes. I also have a 30" inseam with no issues.
In fact, I set the Multi's seat to it's highest as it provides more legroom comfort. Taller bikes should not intimidate anyone with a short inseam as you have a riding comfort advantage.
Re: Multistrada V4S, what would the overall seat height be with both the low seat and the factory low suspension option installed?
Dude u tall to ride anything all that matters is size of ur heart!
Did you now that the Multistrands S models can have the loads changed in all three modes urban mode has the lowest load settings, which will lower the bike too.
Thank you very much for this video, just a question, where could be located de v2s in this line ? Higher or lower than the v4 ? Thank you. Just added another question, I thought that the multistrada lowers the preload more when it is stopped (or going slowly) and running? Or is it at the minimum when stopped ? Thanks again.
This is super helpful. Vertically challenged person myself. Have an Aprilia with a 31.7 in seat height with the 30 in inseam. Looking heavily at the the monster and street fighter v2 as my next bike but was worried about the seat height. Besides me sitting on one this is the next best thing.
How to measure inseam please reply as I am not getting proper answer
@@Arun-wn4ee Measure from the ground while keeping your legs straight up to your groin(the area just behind your balls, and your butthole).
Matt, what kind of Aprilia do you have?
@@r.guardia9107 2016 shiver
Is there low seat sold seperately for the Multistrada Pikes Peak?
I want the Ducati on the display orange and yellow bit of white looks like onroad off road the only one you didn't sit on behind you..... How much and is it available?!
Can you put gold shox in monster???
What bars end mirrors are on the monster
I'm 5'8" and I'm on my tip toes with my 21' V4. Trying to park it on any type of incline while walking it is a huge pain. It's a small inconvenience really, no issue lol
Lol same man, I’m right at 5’10 and it sits pretty high
5’4” riding a stock Multi 1200S. No problem at all. Have ridden the V4S as well didn’t find an issue. I think shorter guys like me find a way to adapt.
5 foot 5 here and was going to buy a multistrada but my 28 inch inseam just let me down, could not get it off the side stand
It sucks having a 27 inch inseame. I'm 5'5 and i have to get up on the pegs when I get off.😂 swinging a leg over is a problem for me. 😂
Hey sir what is the brand of your hiking boots?
I'm an 8'0" swamp monster from the mesozoic era. I reckon the Hyper will git er done.
Hi guys would someone that is 6,6 be able to fit on a street fighter?
Hi, i’m 6.2, what Ducati fits the best?
I have a 30” inseam and I have to stand on the peg and swing my leg over, otherwise I cant clear the bags on my Multistrada.
nice video but left out the desert x! 5'10 but 30'' inside leg do i need just the lower seat or get the lowering kit? i do want to flat foot it if possible
Mark this video was published on Feb 23, 2022 long before we could see a DesertX in the flesh. Please reference our latest DesertX Accessory video for seat height comparisons.
Sent a message through your website… trying to locate an oem scrambler cafe racer seat from the first gen version (dark brown) for over a year with no luck. Can you help?
Dos here you go! amsducati.com/ducati-seat-7 That is the OEM part number for your seat and you can order it right on AMSDucati.com. Please give our team a call if you have additional questions. Thanks!
Best Monster I've seen....wish you guys had a Chicagoland store.
What tall grey tshirt in cm
nice
Thanks
How much does the first service run? And a desmo service on any of the L twins?
That is a question for your local dealer/service center as pricing across countries / regions will differ. If you are local to AMS Ducati Dallas, you can always call our service center for a quote on a specific model. Thanks!
I’m 5’6” with 31” inseam, what’s your opinion on how the torso/arm reach is in “feel” to the HYPERMOTARD handles?
Thats a VERY subjective question. We have guys/gals riding Motards and Multis who have smaller frames than you. The best suggestion we can make is to get into a dealer, sit on and test ride to see what you are comfortable with.
Want the bike on the box the one you didn't sit on.... How much....
(Me being 5'2") Ok i need leg extensions now.
Any bikes for someone who’s 5’2 on their best days? With maybe a 28-29 in seam?
I have a 29 inch inseam and am firmly on the balls of my feet on the std height monster 937. It's fine for me.
At 6' 2" im saving for the hypermotard
Could you record another video for tall people, please?
lol you can ride any of them!
@@AMSDucatiDallas I really love the design of ducati scramblers however I am concerned about how I look on them 😕 I have long legs 😂
@@AMSDucatiDallas no u can not, only in theory. I'm 6'4 and do not fit on most bikes anymore, that's the problem
What would you recommend for someone that’s 6’10”
2025 estremohypermotard SSP-38 inch inseam. 👺 Roba Da Matti In Verità Donnaiolo Versione
How would a supersport compare... 29 Inch inseam...
How to measure inseam for motorcycle please reply anyone know about it
Crotch to bottom of boot? 🤷🏻♂️
The eternal size issue. I'm 6.2 and got so frustrated that my different Ducs all looked so tiny with me on it 🙄 qexcept fot Ktm 1260 and co, bikes that are not dissapearing under you are as rare as non intimidating bikes for shorter riders.
I'm 6ft 1 and been told any Ducati supersports bike would be too small for me :(
Coaby is an interesting chap with some great suggestions and ideas there. :)
Lol I’m 5’10 and in my vans and on my V2 sitting straight up I’m on my tippy toes. The seats are super high.
One thing that's worth noting is the fact that 2 people with the same height might not have the same inseam length, and the latter is what 's really important when the mater is if you are going to have good ground reach (or not).
Sorry for the late response.
Height is not always a factor. I'm a little over 5' 9'' with a 33.2 inseam so same as the 6ft guy in this video and should be able to flat foot anything he can lol. Height doesn't always equal longer legs it depends on your overall proportions.
so i am lucky to have 32 inseam (no shoes) at 5'8''
Kobe perfect height and size
doesnt matter with seat options and biking techniques really
Is it possible for you guys to find this part: 96880051A (lowered seat for Multistrada 1200s 2014)?
5”8 hear , tear tear
Perfect 👌🏻
How to measure inside leg for motorcycle can anyone please tell me as it is urgent.
ughhh, 29" inseam and the bike I want has the tallest seat height (hypermotard). Colby is angry at something/someone.
Btw , 5 foot 7 is not even that
Short
Moral of the story is.. its all good if you're 6ft plus.
Dammit I came here to see the 1100 scrambled lol. Good vid though
Come on!! guys, motorcycles are characterized by riding skills. They are never categorized by weight and height. Riding skills only make the bike bigger or smaller. Not your height.
Cheers!! Just learn to ride the bike you love most. Rest everything falls in place if you keep working. I am 5'4" and ride anything on my way. Currently riding desert sledge.
