Now considering a Brozz. Will I fit??
I've been considering a hawk due to its 35 inch seat height. I'm 6'5 280. I know megadan fits on a hawk just fine and he's my size. Well now the Brozz has come into consideration. It's seat height is 34 inches. I'm wondering how I'd fit. Jeff at peace sports said he sold one to a guy that was 6'7, but the guy put a taller spring. I don't want to have to do that. So my question to the Brozz guys, at my size, will I fit?. I want to do very basic trail riding and cruise 45-55 mph back roads.

I'm 6'2" 200 on the Motomax (pretty sure it has the same/similar seat to the brozz) and my main problem is that I have to sit back on the passenger seat to feel the most comfortable.

Interesting different view points. It's hard being a big fella and not being able to sit on the bike first.

I am used to riding standards and a sport bike. My idea of comfortable will be a bit different than most.

Your opinion is invaluable. At the end of the day, at our sizes, we don't really "fit" on anything lol. And we are all also built different. I think I remember reading somewhere that you had a longer inseam. Mine is like 33 inches, kinda on the short side for 6'5,my torso is longer. No one has anything in stock anyways. So I guess that gives my time to keep researching and maybe one will pop up locally for me to sit on.

I don't think you would have any trouble at all on a brozz but I sure wish it had 21-18 tires like the hawk so that may be a consideration. I am on the other end of the equation, short legged.

Thanks agasim for all the help. I know I've been all over the place. I think I've at least narrowed it down to a Hawk DLX and a Brozz.

I got sick of waiting for a DLX canceled it and had a brozz in my garage 6 days later. They only had the standard brozz left in stock and either orange, or black. That was a couple weeks ago. I need to figure out how to lower my shock, I should probably get it all the way together first, lol.

Remedylane, where are you located. Perhaps someone could let you sit on or take a brief ride on their bike. I’m in Central Fl. I’m 5’11 210 lbs inseam is 30”. My Brozz fits me just fine. I just need some wider foot pegs.

I'm in North Carolina. Sitting on one would be ideal, but I also trust megadan since we are the same size. Every spec sheet I see for the hawk dlx shows the seat height of 36 inches. The regular hawk is a shade over 35. I guess maybe the inverted forks a different shock gives it a tad more height. The reality is when you are 6'5 not much is made to fit you. I haven't see anything wi th a seat height over 37 inches.
