If in doubt get a tape measure, but I know I wouldn't put mine under 2m height bar.

Doubt it

Mine is standard, and sits at 2020mm with a bit of gear in the back.

Would be too close for comfort with me anyway.

Or get some smaller tyres - or check out exactly what the clearance is - they may have a safety margin of a few centimetres, as a lot of places only work in 10cm steps. See if you can talk to the building manager.

Cameron,

I've had the same problem in a couple of different car parks.... best thing is take it down with a tape measure and just try it out (slowly of course and with a mate or someone watching).

Make sure also that it's unladen - my fender will drop when I've got a heap of crap in the rear end.

In most cases, where a 2m clearance is stated mine has fit.

Cheers
Scott

I have just measured mine while on the level shed floor - 2050 at the back end.

Geez you can see why LR went back to putting ribs back on the external side of the roof!!!
