Sweet article. Someday I hope to have a super-motorad-clone around-town runabout built for a short man. Looks like a ton of fun!

You and me both. I figure the best I'll be able to do is try and score some sort of 250 enduro and be content with one foot on the ground

you have an 05 Speed Triple and are therefore BANNED from having any other cool bikes. You have exceeded your "cool bike quota" for 2005 (and probably 2006 as well)

The crazy thing about motards is that they are so light the height doesn't bother you. Just lean the sucker over at stop signs. I'm only 5'9 and have no problems with my 525. My toes barely touch the ground too.
