| I will be buying my first bike soon and I am seriously considering the Ducati S2R. My only concern is if the bike will be physically to small for me. I am 6'3" and 190lbs. The bike is very comfortable on the showroom floor but I don't know how it will be after a few hours of riding. I will not be using it for cross country trips. Any thoughts?

| Jon,
At 6'3", I think that you might find the legroom on the S2R a little cramped (especially if you like to ride with the balls of your feet on the pegs).
Your upper body should be good because there is a decent reach to the handlebars.
I am 5'7" so I can only guess if it would work for you. I have done 400 miles in a day, but even my legs felt restricted after that (for short 100 mile trips it is great).
I think the ideal height of a rider for this bike would be between 5'6" and 5'10".
That's just my two cents.
