Science and Technology Desk: The rider's height and weight should be taken into consideration while buying a motorcycle. If you do not choose the right motorbike, it will be difficult to ride. As tall people are not very comfortable riding light and low cc bikes. On the other hand heavy and high cc bikes are not suitable for short and healthy people. So you have to choose the bike according to your height and weight. Otherwise, a lot of money will go down the drain.

What is the first thing a customer looks at when buying a bike? Engine, mileage or design. But later, while riding the bike, I got into trouble. Then there is no end to regret. This is because of the altitude. How well the rider can control the bike depends on his height.

5 feet to 5.5 feet: If the height is 5 feet to 5.5 feet, one should buy light and small engine bike weighing 110 to 140 kg. Then he can easily control the bike even in traffic. Hero Splendor, Glamour, Honda Shine, TVS Apache 160, Bajaj Pulsar 150 etc are ideal for drivers of this height.

5.6 feet to 5.10 feet: People with height of 5.6 to 5.10 feet can easily ride 130 to 160 kg bike. 150 to 200 cc engine bikes are ideal for them.

Riders of this height can buy bikes like Yamaha FZ, Bajaj Pulsar NS200, Pulsar RS 200, Honda Hornet 2.0 and Hero Xtreme 160R.

More than 5.11 feet: If the height is more than 5.11 feet, they can ride 150 to 200 kg bikes i.e. 200 cc to 400 cc heavy bikes. Riders of this height should buy bikes with powerful and big engines. Like Royal Enfield Classic 350, KTM Duke 390, Bajaj Dominar 400 etc.

Why is it said to buy bikes according to height? If the main reason is control, then the second reason must be comfort. The driver can easily touch the ground. Again the height is high but if the bike is light it may cause discomfort on long rides. Keep in mind, the understanding of the driver and the bike is the last thing.
