You're welcome. He barely flat foots it!
Next time Eidian shows up for a forum ride, I'll let him take a picture of his bike with me flat-footing it standing over the windscreen :wink:

Hey Ed!

Great idea this thread, glad to contribute :smile:

I will post up a "collage" of photos I have so far... if I remember on the weekend I will take some specific ones and edit my post. I will do the same regarding my inseam as I've never measured it... too scared to find out how short my legs really are :lol:

So here goes:

Bike: Kawasaki ZX-6R 2006 model (the infamous 636 :biggrin:)
Height: 5'7
Weight: 165 pounds

Photos:

Standing next to bike (the full leathers make my legs look even shorter than they really are :biggrin:):



Sitting on bike - with my height and inseam, I CANNOT flat-foot this bike, as is clearly evident from the picture... but it's not a problem:

Ha ha! Sure, live it up in your glory that is called "being tall". The next time you feel someone punching your knees, you'll know it's me...hey, that's as high as I'll be able to reach. :tongue:

While I appreciate the printed page and the table cloth pattern being there for size reference, it's still vague. Could you get someone to actually put their butt just above them to re-create someone that's about to sit on them. That way we can all gauge the effectiveness of the spikes. Thank you. :wink:

Hey Mike, sit on these!!
