Hydmoto | 4 years ago14 ReplyIt can be managed only if you are a rider who has prior experience. I'm 5.5 and I ride the duke 200 which I tip toe while solo and can reach flat with pillion weight. 5.3 will be uncomfortable but not impossible. If you are passionate, experienced who can handle a powerful machine like the duke in emergency and traffic situations then you can go for it.
Nerf | 4 years ago7 ReplyIt will be hard ..in new bs6 Duke 200 seat height has increased. I'm 5feet 6 inch and only toes of each foot touches the ground..but as the bike is light it's easy to control.ii suggest you take test ride but if you r an experienced rider I don't think height will be an issue.
Ziyad | 5 years ago66 ReplyI'm 5.4' and am happily riding a Duke 200 for 5 years now. Height is an issue only when you want to reverse the bike on an uneven surface by sitting on it. I usually get down from the bike during such instances. it is a light weight bike and therefore is very easy to manage.
Suprith | 4 years ago1 ReplyYou will face a lot of problem in Traffic, my dad is 5'6 and his foot barely touched one side of the road. Suggest you go for RE bullet or duke 125.But it is highly comfortable for riding, latent strain after riding is not there. Ergonomics or seating comfort is worth the height.
Arijit | 4 years ago3 ReplyNo it will be a little problem for you specially at the traffic you will have a very little portion of your foot touching the ground. As of the 2020 edition of Duke 200 its seat height increased a lot so do take a test drive before final purchase. Ride safe.
Sammy | 5 years ago19 ReplyIf you are confident about your riding and controls then ofcourse it is suitable for your height.Duke 200 is not something that can be rode by learners, you must be a rider to ride this monster.It is comfortable when you can reach your one leg firmly on the ground, it should be enough for you, as a result you may appear to have some troubles in traffic riding and so on... But that doesn't matter if you can handle your bike firmly and conciously in an emergency situations.
Vasu | 4 years ago2 ReplyI’m 5’7” i cannot supposed to place my both foots on floor at the same time. But for me ok to manage with boots. But here you are 5’3” so.. imagine that brother, you can ride that’s not a problem here. But your height makes you uncomfortable in many situations.we can adjust many things for our love. But in long terms that’s not that much easier. Hope you understand bro.
Bikash | 5 years ago3 ReplyYes for the handling it is fine but It's little difficult when you reverse It, for that put it in neutral to make is easier as it doesn't move freely even when clutch is applied .
Shiyaf | 3 years ago2 ReplyI'm 5'4' and I can manage the vehicle effortlessly. Even though I tip toe, it is very easy to control the bike even in traffic or uneven terrains, because the bike is very light in weight.
Ziyad | 5 years ago4 ReplyI'm 5ft 4in and have been riding a Duke 200 for the last 4 years and it's okay. If this is your first bike or you are a relatively new rider, you could experience some difficulties. Otherwise, it's fine, though I sometimes wish the seat height was a little lower especially when riding with a pillion.
Chinmaya | 5 years ago1 ReplyIf you are an experienced rider height wont matter , but if you are new to naked street it will bit uncomfortable as you would be reaching on your toes.
Vedant | 5 years ago0 ReplyNot so because when I was 5.4" I was struggling but if you are able to control it's power and weight then go for it.
SuperCharged | 2 years ago0 ReplyIts not always just the height but the inseam of your legs that matters most. As Duke has a narrow seat towards the oil tank, it doesn't really feel as high as NS does. So best is to test ride it once.
Mohit | 5 years ago2 ReplyYes bruh it will be comfortable earlier you will be facing problem but afterwards you will be habitual and I am also 5'3 so now I am also not getting problem after some time it's soccer's get adjusted
Abhijeet | 5 years ago1 ReplyThat depends upon your balancing the way you do it, however I think it could hamper you in traffic
Jagannath | 4 years ago0 ReplyNo you might get some issues...as I'm 5'11" and i get my feets down fully soo 5'3" could be a isssue
Jagan | 5 years ago0 ReplyYes for sure... It may be slightly difficult at handling but it'll be easy if u ride enough.
Lohith | 5 years ago1 ReplyYou will be tip-toying for sure but once u get used to it you'll will be fine. I own and drive duke 200 and for reference my height is 5.6 still my legs doesn't touch the ground.
Abdias | 4 years ago0 ReplyIt'll be a tad bit difficult for you to maneuver in traffic, otherwise you'll be fine
Srinivas | 5 years ago0 ReplyNo problem,you should be capable of holding weight of it then it is ready to race.
AkshwanThappa | 5 years ago1 ReplyU can ride easily but when u need to reverse then some conplications u can face
Cruz | 5 years ago2 ReplyI bought one of the first bikes launched in my state ..till date i didnt had any single problem handling the bike ..and i am just 5ft 2 inch..so its up to you bro .
Riccardo | 5 years ago2 ReplyRiding with the right foot -gear is very important. I'm sure you can handle the DUKE 200 comfortably. Remember....its your inner height (confidence) that counts....
Abdul | 3 years ago0 ReplyI'm 5.4 still no problem but 5.6 best height for Duke 200, over all control and best position
Mohit | 5 years ago0 ReplyBro you can take but you have to reduce suspension so you can ride easily earlier you will face difficulties in traffic but after that you will comfortable
