What is the Pulsar N150 like for taller riders?

Question

Motorcycle ergonomics can be quite varied, and the fit is important to comfort and control for the taller than average rider. With a Pulsar N150, being a popular choice in the 150cc segment, it’s natural for riders of all sizes to be attracted to it. However, how well does it suit those on the higher side? Are the footpegs positioned comfortably? Can you reach the handlebar? Is the seat to the peg distance appropriate for longer legs? All of these factors can make a lot of difference in your riding comfort, especially for long journeys. Now, let's hear what riders with hands on experience have to say about the N150’s ergonomics.

Rana · Accepted Answer

I was a 6'2" rider and pleasantly surprised by the N150. I do not feel crammed and the seat height is just right. I can flat foot at stops and the handlebar position is natural. This is one of the more accommodating bikes I’ve ridden in this segment.

I’m 5’11? and while not uncomfortable, I feel a little cramped on longer rides. I would like the footpegs to be a tad lower and more forward. For city commutes it's fine, but on the highway stretches I'm feeling it in my knees after an hour or so.

Naresh · Answer

I think taller riders can ride it honestly its just okay. I'm 6', and I can, but it's not great. The main issue for me is the handlebar – it’s a bit too close and compels a slightly hunched posture. An aftermarket riser helped a lot.

Gazal · Answer

I was skeptical, being 6'3" but it actually works well for me. The key is the seat; it's long enough that I can scoot back a bit for a little more legroom. It’s also narrow enough that my knees don’t feel splayed out. For a bike in this class, it’s surprisingly comfortable.

Deepak · Answer

I think it has more to do with your body proportions than just height. I'm 6'1" with a longer torso, and the N150 is pretty comfortable. My legs don't seem too bent and I feel natural reach to the handlebars. It’s a matter of how well your body fits into the triangle between the seat, pegs and bars.

Punit · Answer

I'm a 5'10" rider and it's perfect. My 6'4" friend tried it and he looked like a bear on a bicycle. Really, it's not designed for very tall riders. If you are above 6'2" you may wish to look at larger bikes or be prepared to make some modifications.

Ravi · Answer

I'm 6' and it's not uncomfortable, but I did make a few tweaks. Replacing the stock seat with a slightly taller one made a whole world of difference. It was made for me, and now it feels like it. These smaller bikes go a long way with a little customization.
