I'm 6'6" and about 270 atm but on my way to join you at 240 hopefully. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
I've owned 914s since I was 15 and they work no problem. With "adjustments" I honestly feel like I fit better in my 914 than in my Tundra. - small steering wheel - 350mm - ~4" steering wheel extension brings it closer and up - cut a U and lowered the back of the seat floor about 3/4" - no seat rails - shave extra fiberglass bumps off bottom of seat. probably not necessary, but gives you another 1/16". bolt seat to lowered floor. - thin seat cushion - I bent my shift lever to the right so the knob is about 2" to the right from the normal position. Sit in a 914 without a seat and realize how much room there is! then just add back some small creature comforts like a seat. I fit fine for daily driving put still have to have the top off with a helmet. -Steve |
