Coming from a 5’4 na Svartpilen owner din, gusto ko pa sana itaas ‘yung clearance dahil madalas tumama ‘yung ilalim kahit na sobrang ingat at pa-syete na sa matataas na humps. Kahit na may kataasan ‘yung seat height, okay pa rin sa trapik dahil sa gaan. Madali ihandle and balance kaya mas madali magshift ng pwet para mag lapat ng paa either side. Struggle nga ‘yung side stand kadalasan! Hahaha. Ingat palagi, sir! Ride safe.
Agree! One thing we can do is reroute the pipe header from bottom to middle. Pero need to remove the catalytic converter, since sa baba nakapwesto yung CAT to pipe header... Watch my vid on the 401 hate list, maybe you can relate to my list as well. Stay safe too!
Your overall height really isn't important, what is important is your inseam length. I'm 5'6" with an inseam of 28" without boots on. I struggle on almost every bike. It's a major pain in the butt! But you can make it work, look at all those people on ADV bikes! You would have to be a giant to flatfoot on most of those!
Agree! I have an inseam of 29" and it takes practice to ride taller bikes. So far am comfortable riding the Svart for more than a year now, I feel like I can ride any bikes now - except the really tall ADV/enduro bikes 😅
Great video bro, I am also 5.4, and I am planning to get this bike 250cc version. Can I know how is the ground clearance of this bike? Does the under belly get scratched while going over speed breakers?
I think the 401 and the 200/250 are similar in terms of the ground clearance. Since my 401 is lowered (front fork and rear shock pre-load), if does not get scratched if I'm riding solo, but it does if I have a pillion. It also depends on the bumps, there are no standards for speedbumps in the PH and some are notoriously high 😅
Why don't they just make the seat lower on the 401 & 701? Oh, I guess that would make it to easy? No wonder they are setting on show room floors at give away prices. That, and the 2 gallon or so gas tank. F-me what were they thinking?
Agree! The bike is not that big, but dat seat height 😅 and the tank capacity as well. But as I've mentioned, the pros > cons, and I still love the bike 🙂
I suggest, test ride to feel the bike talaga. I think a couple of dealers in the Metro offer test rides for the Svart/Vit. Kayang kaya mo to idrive, mas matangkad ka sakin eh = longer inseam hehe.
Kaya yan! Ang available palang daw na lowering kit are for adventure bikes nila KTM, but new batches ng svart/vit, lower springs ang nasa fork and rear.
Paps saan dealer mo sya pinababaan? (Or maybe pwede diy?) May tinawagan akong dealer ung likod lang daw inaadjust and recommended to swap my shocks sa 401. I have a 200 unit para akong ballerina eh haha
Nirequest ko the day mismo ng releasing ng unit to have the front fork lowered by around 1 inch tapos rear shock pre-load lowered din sa 3rd click. For sure pwede dapat sa dealer yan, pero kung hindi sinabi sayo na pwede ilower ang forks, wag ka na bumalik tinatamad lang sila hehe. No need to swap forks daheck anong suggestion yun???DIY nalang or sa mga motoshop malapit jan sa inyo 🙂
What’s your height? We have the same bike I’m 5’4 medyo tip toe hehe. Try not to get off on the higher side sa stand side usually para ma baba. Ride safe
Same height din tayo, with 29in inseam ata ako. Weird nga kasi mas comfortable getting off on the higher side of the bike while on sidestand. Try it...
Us Filipino's got it bad with height bro! Appreciate the vid

Bro you can dismount the way you mounted the bike, using the foot pegs. Para di ka rin mahirapan sa dismount
Oy, hindi ko pa na-try to, thanks sa suggestion! 🙂

We have the same height and inseam.. sa specs plang akala ko mapapa gangster lean ka sa traffic LOL.. Salamat sa informative vid 👍..
May adjustment ba sa sidestand or aftermarket sidestand para mas madali syang magrip ng paa?
looking cool! just keep safe all the time, sending support from South Korea
Appreciate the support! Stay safe too!

I’m 5’6 w/ 31” inseam wondering if I can fit this bike and if I need to lower it.
You'll manage the bike without lowering it - but I suggest try it out first if you can
Nasagot mo na bro yung pagkukukang sa height, yung pagkukulang na lang sa budget problema 😂, Ride safe bro!
Problema ko din yun eh 😂😅 thanks bro!
Ano hieght mo sir?
Ano po magandang specs ng riser? I might need that with the Svart 200. Thanks.
Nako wala akong idea sa mga riser, medyo ok naman kasi ako sa riding position ng Svart kahit lowered 🙂
Boss kmusta naman ang comfort ng angkas pag naka angkas..? Ty
Oks naman, walang reklamo ang angkas, need lang talaga magpahinga after 2 hours of riding 🙂

5'3 lang ako. huhu. sana may available lowering kit sila?

@@ajprawns salamat sa video mo naadjust ko na lahat DIY. Mahirap talaga vertically challenged! 🤣
@@glennleis4783 tiis pogi hehe. Pero manageable naman 😂
Mabilis ba mangalawang yung pipe? Parang orange na yung pipe galing sa makina?
Sobrang dumi kasi nyan kaya nung nalinisan naging ganyan, baka kulang pa sa punas 😅
bro where did you score the sliders? 😊

@@ajprawns The bike can tip over on the other side baka mahulugan ka ingat.
@@ajprawns ako din, mas madali pala bumaba on the right side 😁
@@glennleis4783 weird no? Mas madali talaga sa right side hehe 🤣

@@ajprawns Thanks for reply bro 🙏
