I am 6'1"

My 50 here had +1 fork legs with stiff springs and an I-shock. About 2-2 1/2 inches taller than stock roughly.

I'm 6'4. I don't find it hard to ride a stock 50 with aftermarket handle bars. With stock handle bars my legs are wider than Sarah Palins daughters legs!

Hahaha....nice

I'm 5'7 and with +1's and an ishock I fit perfect on my bike. The bars make a huge difference too. ...I finally got my new 108 on the track today after riding a stock motor for a full summer.

Re: stocker questions

Google has tons of pics,or this site seems to have plenty of photos w/people riding basically stock 50's you could use as reference.

Re: stocker questions

Check out 50cc Racing.com :: Home Page for a cool riser for the stock bars. I just installed one on my son's 50 and I can ride it real comfortable (would need upgraded forks and rear shock to ride/race/jump regularly though). With the riser you don't need to change cables, wiring, grips. Everything stays stock.

That's really cool for adults who ride for fun,or for kids who are growing and will eventually move to a larger bike.But alot of us like the bmx bar feel and def the height of them.

but that is cool.
