BTW, off road bikes are all going to have high seating positions. After all you are looking at a bike to go off road, so clearance is what they consider in such a machine. You can always trim the seat pad, put lifts on your riding boots(or even some rubber on the soles), lower the suspension' yet all these are going to be trade offs.
It really isn't such a big deal to get both feet down at the same time. All you really need is one to pogo on. I can't remember the last time i put both feet down on any bike. FYI, i have a 32 inch inseam and i can't put both feet down on any of my dirt bikes. Not a big deal.
BTW, where are you located? You plan on riding strickly on the road or might take off road detours from time to time?
