Moto sizer

The BMW website has a neat "moto-sizer" to tell you if you are too shrimpy for a big bad bike. :lol:

Lol. I thought it rather presumptious for a company to tell potential buyers that they are not suited for certain bikes. Actually pretty stupid and insulting. Plenty of 5' 9" guys (and gals for that matter) with 29" inseams riding GSA's. But I am 6' 0" with a 31" inseam and it says I ain't qualified. <dope>
