    Hey, all:

    Just picked up a gorgeous, Red Hot 98 as my second bike. Previously had a Kawi Ninja 250 (was my first baby, and outgrew it after one season and 2,000 miles). Can't wait for some good weather to take pics and share.

    Anyway, being a smaller build (I'm 5'7") and coming from a much lighter bike (the 250 was about half the weight of this baby), It's taking an adjustment for me to get used to only my tip-toes reaching the ground :(

    Is there anything that can be done to lower the seating position on these things - aside from admitting to being too small for my bike? I live in NJ.

    Thanks

    Customizing your seat by having some of the foam trimmed/removed, and/or taller boots. As far as lowering the bike, unless you only wish to drag race, or cruise main street, I do not recommend it. It will have negative effects on the handling.
