Offroad motorcycles with 38.9 inch seat heights are even more scary. Try to put your foot down — nothing. I stick to the jeep roads and easy trails by and large.

There definitely are narrower trails with bigger sidehill drops north of Ellensburg, WA in the Teanaway area. In general called extreme sidehill traverses. I will never see them except on video or maybe hiking a little ways. I know of one grandmother who rides them on her very tall KTM.
