Paid a visit to fowlers today and had a good look at a CBF500. But at 5ft 2 i'm on my tip toes (or hopping from foot to foot :-[) Anybody know the best way to go about getting the bike lowered??

Oldie mod.. is to have the seat foam reduced in thickness, loose a few inches ..trade off maybe a little comfort. Worth having it done Professionally for a few quid. 8-)Originally Posted by Chantelle

its so expensive to be short :'( If i just took some foam out the seat how much do you reckon i could lower it by?

How about some of Gary (lock up yer children) glitters old platform golden glittery boots

Yes, they just remove the cover shave out a acurate layer of foam and refit cover. dead easy..could diy if you felt confident about it.
