Lets start the ball rolling to find Mr average SD rider. I want to find the average age/height and weight for Ktm to make our ideal base line bike. I will confess to being just turned 46 and am a tad over 5 feet 7 and a half inches, and am still at my christmas fat weight of just under 12 stone, normally 11 and a half./ So if you wish to submit, and as I started it, all weights must be in Stones and not Kg and height in feet and inches.
I'm 6 4 and weigh 12 and a half stone.............
Also 46, just shy of 6 foot and about 13.5 stone

You Brits might be screwed up with the imperial system, but atleast you have the metric system as standard. Its much easier to use than our American system, which was derived and mutated from the imperial system. 1/4" 5/16" ect...

Ever try working on a Harley? Metric this and American standard that. You know, cuz it's made in America

This is an interesting thread! I'm using it to get some motivation into the new weight loss programe post crutches and the Christmas disaster.

I'm currently 14 stone but my target weight is 12 stone (potentially gettable)

I'm 6 foot 10 inches (when I feel confident)

I'm 47 years old going on 35 (read denial)

Reading the latest 'average' stats is interesting.

I was wondering if there weren't some more stats. that would add to the debate?

Like for instance, how long have you been riding bikes and how many other bikes have you owned before discovering the SD? I'd be interested in seeing the results of this. Bit like Dribble says... how long does it take to realise that the SD is a great bike that delivers on the performance of a sports-bike, the versatility of an all rounder, the credibility of an iconic model and the ability to be a hooligan machine if you want to. I've always thought that it would take owning a fair few bikes to realise this but it seems that there are a lot out there who have made the jump without having tried and lived with the other alternatives. This is the kind of information that KTM marketing teams need to see so that they'll take the development of this model seriously and accept that it's not as 'niche' as I suspect they think it is.

I empathise with the other short asses, but the SD is the only road bike for me.
Dont' care so much about touching the ground, after being a Motocrosser the last 5yrs, touching the ground is not important.

The SD is my first roadbike: after working in a bike shop for 3yrs, i got to ride lotsa stuff, and only 2 bikes were on my shopping list.
Suzuki M109 Boulavard 1800cc FI V-Twin and the SD
My mates are glad i got the SD, reckon I'm not OLD enuff for a cruiser.

i am way under average... younger, a lot lighter, and shorter than the average... I win power to weight in Oceania... yay.

as for the 75kg springs... were to heavy for me... or is that 75 for a fully kitted up weight?
All you bloody small people better not get in KTM's ear trying to make the bike smaller! It is nice to find a bike that is not pocket sized.

no i agree... bike should stay same size
Scamb66. Mate you are right to group me with the Aussies but the reason we are bigger and healthier is coz we have sunshine and a healthier diet and lifestyle than the POMS. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.

Oh I think we one something, we won the pleasure of getting SD's delivered to us. If this tells KTM anything it should be that they need to supply a bicycle with every purchase of one of their motorcycles.
