    has it been lowered or is it stock height? I know your wife isn't much taller then I am if I can remember, I think I have her on weight though.

    She going up in a bike or down?

    I will seriously contact you if its still available in another month.

    It is stock , the bike has a narrow waist so your legs are not as far appart as some other 600 class bikes which gains you some length in the leg. She has no problem flat footing.
    She really loves the bike and is in fact debating on wether or not to sell it.
    She is looking to move to more of an adv bike the Vstrom 650 for instance.
    The alternative is to keep the ninja for street only duty and get a pair of KLR 650's for that mix of pavement and dirt. But economically , getting a v strom makes more sense right now.

    I didn't really expect anyone to jump at it at the end of the riding season.
    I just figured I bump it up for the hell of it.

    Re: 06 ninja 650

    I hadn't ever even seen one. I like the look though and after being absolutely shocked and just how nice the BMW F800's are this looks like a nice ride. I saw the ABS as an option in the MCN article link above where they report it is a 300 British Pound option.

    ABS is a blast on the track not to mention a back road and for me it (and is) a lesson in just how much I was (and am) leaving on the table in the braking zones. I wish more bikes had it.

    you could always buy this one and see if you can buy the abs option from the brits and bolt it on.
