the klr seat heightr is listed at 35"

That'd be a about right based on my shoe size and where my toes hit the pavement.

I usually just lean it to one side.

I've seen >15 people do this on BMW GS1150's.

The best is when they have it on the center stand, start it up, rock it down and take off.

I was just thinking the same thing, but I just popped a lortab 5 for my shoulder, so I probably should watch my typing

(no, not riding bike home from work if anyone gives a shit, which nobody probably does)
