Got a potential new riding pal whose in that confusing decision of which one to buy, He's 5ft.7, 220lbs and 25 years old and thinks the Raptor fits his size better. He's ridden my Baja, and rides good for no experience. He's never ridden a Raptor but I have. My first impression of the Raptor was a blast to ride, but tippy when cornering fast and loves to wheelie a little too much for my taste. Anyway his consern is that a lot of DS650 reviews have comments that shorter riders may have difficulty controlling the Bomb. Any short portly fast riders out there that can shoot this myth down?

5' 8'' 175 No Problem at all go for it.

 

5'8 205lb I love the fit.No problems with handleing.

 

5'4 150#. My feet don't reach the footpegs but I still find a way to hang on and hold it wide open. The size of the DS doesn't intimidate me, the acceleration will someday though.

 

5'4 130#, the human flag
