My KLR actually lets me get the balls of my feet on the ground, you might be able to touch a toe

Good luck with that. Hubby just got a DRZ and I can't even touch well enough to sit it upright (off the kick stand)... I think I'm your height or a little taller (5'5"). He can barely touch but with his weight he compresses the suspension enough that he can. I don't think it moved when I got on.
