I will soon be doing a video on the KVS Ergo-Fit system and I need to collect some information and was hoping you all could help.
When I see the poster on the dealer wall regarding Ergo-Fit, it shows the KVS will accommodate riders up to 6' 4". I find this very hard to believe.
I am 5-11, (maybe closer to 5-10 as I have shrunk a bit over the years), and I fit perfect on the extended reach seat with the pegs in the mid-reach position. When I added the Corbin seat I had to move the pegs to the extended reach position as it pushes me a little forward, and I feel the same leg comfort as I did with the earlier set up.
Being somewhere between 5-10 and 5-11, and fitting best with the extended reach seat and mid reach pegs, I am betting that with the pegs moved to the extended reach position, I could be no taller than 6-0 or 6-1 maximum and still feel comfortable.
So my question is - for those of you taller riders, how tall are you, what ergo-fit configuration do you have your seat/pegs/bars in, and what do you think the maximum height a rider could be and still feel comfortable on the bike? (Please, just for the sake of simplicity, let's leave inseam out of this discussion).
Basically, with your help, I'm trying to figure out what is the tallest rider a KVS can comfortably accommodate. I know what Kawasaki says, and I don't think I believe it.
Thanks much for your help!
