Question

Michael Noronha · Accepted Answer

Hey buddy, don't worry about the height because my height is also 5.3 and i own duke 390 bs6 version and the seat height is 830 but i can manage it very well because i was using duke 200 before. well i can touch the ground half from both side. it's not about height it's all about how you control the bike.

Hey Abhishek! Why dont you have a sit on it and check it out. But one word of advice - dont let height keep you from getting onto a bike - I have ridden bikes on which even climbing on was a pain.. but once you get going you get used to it. And with time you can figure out how to use just one foot to get the job done. for instance - while pushing the bike bac=k while sitting on it takes effort.. when on a tall bike, just hop off and push it back.   And if you need inspiration - check this out -   https://www.roadandtrack.com/motorsports/news/a24671/1985-peak-wtf-moment-a-tiny-belgian-won-dakar-against-all-odds/    Take care!

Pranav Shriram · Answer

Absolutely, the bike is not only made for riders who are tall, if you can tip toe on the bike including high heel boots etc. at a signal or at stand still position then you wont be having any issues. It all depends on how you control the bike in spite of your height. Never think that you cannot go for a bike because of your height. Never k**l the zeal of owning a D390 because of your height. ~Pranav

I will not recommend you to buy a duke 390 maybe after some time you will feel that it's not comfortable for you there will be some strain on you legs to hold the tank

Yes. Although it will be a little challenge to you. But with a pillion the thing will become more easy.

Mayank Pancholi · Answer

I would suggest you to please take a test ride of the bike and than decide if you are comfortable and can control bike easily than you can go for it. because safety is no.1 priority.

Please take a test ride of the bike to find out. A seat height of 830mm isn't short.

This is depaned on you...but I think 5'8'' is best...
