Hello everyone. I am thinking about getting a CB650R and am wondering whether on not I will be able to stand flat footed when I come to a stop. There are no bikes anywhere near me to try out. I am 5'11 and have a 32 inch inseam.
Thanks

I’m 5’9 and can flat foot so you’ll have no problem.
Thanks for the reply Ghost. I was just a little concerned because I haven't been able to see the bike in person. Once my CB650R-abs arrives, I will formally introduce myself to the forum.

The CB650F/R front fork is higher than the CBR650F/R.

I'm 5'6 and had to lower my CBR650F bike.

I'm assuming you should be ok.

When I sat on the cb650r in the dealership I actually found it lower then the cbr :/ at 5’11 with a seat height at 81cm he’ll be absolutely fine.

I'm 5'8" with a 31" inseam and I can't flat foot my 2020 cb650r even with thick sole boots on. I am on the balls of my feet.

If I sit all the way forward on the seat and keep my right foot on the brake, I can flat foot just my left foot easily which is totally comfortable.

Only thing that sucks is backing up takes forever and looks rediculous as I waddle out a few inches at a time 😅 hopefully it gives people a giggle.
