HOpefully this isn't a repost but I found this site today and I found it rather interesting comparing different bikes and figuring out why I find certain bikes really uncomfortable:

Yeah but it was posted a long time ago. if you are shopping for a bike it is worth its weight in gold.

Very cool, thanks.

I used this site a while back when I wanted to change my handlebars. The offset values for the bars let me see what the new riding position was going to be like. Very cool

Wow, thanks for this!!

I never realized that an 848 (dream bike) has just as harsh ergonomics as an R6.

Fatal flaw: it doesn't take into account the rider weight and thus suspension sag when figuring any of this out. I'm 5'5" and I have a 2010 GSXR 600. I can flatfoot both feet in my army boots. This says I should be on my toes.

LIES!

Well I think it is pretty neat, thanks for posting it.

So are you saying that you're a bit on the heavy side?

Insofar as that I weigh more than zero micrograms and therefore I do compress my bike's suspension to some non-zero extent. Otherwise, no, I'm not.
