I'm 5'4/5'5 and I want to start riding a sport bike, what should the seat height be?

I currently don't have any means of trying out bikes at dealers because they're too far away from me. I want to start riding a sport bike that's more than 450 but less than 600. Does anyone have any bikes to suggest? Thank you!

I'm about your height. I been riding since 1982. You need to get a bike with seat height of about 30 inches. The width of the seat also makes a big difference.

You can also get other bikes with higher seats IF you get the bike lowered. But it is always best and cheapest if you get it straight from the factory.

Buell Blast is just about the only bike that fits your bill. Anything bigger than 250cc will too high. But Buell Blast is 500cc class with 27 inch seat height. It is one of the best recommended bikes for beginner and intermediate rider.

Good luck...

I'm 5'4" and I ride a Honda 599 Hornet. I think the seat height is 30.5" and it's a great bike! A little pricey but totally worth it. Give it a look. Good luck to you.

just by a 600. anything smaller and youll want a new bike within a month. as for seat height you can by lowering links for less than 100 dollars and install them yourself.

Ninja 550, you can find it on their site. It has a moderately low seat height and it looks good.
