Being 1’1” taller than me ..... you probably need it raising..... lol....

My mate who is 6’3” always amazes me.... we come to a stop at a red light.... my feet are on the road.... my bum is on the seat of the bike..... he stands up.... and there is acres of space between his bum and the seat of his bike..... not that I look at his bum......Image
