Can you lower it a inch or 2 some how? Shorter shocks, flip flop the swing arm so the shock mounts are on the bottom of the swing arm? Thinner seat?

Yeah badinfluence63 I think I'm going to shave the seat. As Shorts suggested. I kinda already feel comfortable with the way it already is. Like the ...

I have a Hyosung 2008 gt250r. Well I can tip toe it okish, to the point of where I'm comfortable (in the parking garage). I know I can somewhat go at a higher speed fine. So what I do is practice my Slow Speeds. I pretend I'm in heavy traffic, and work the clutch. Letting the bike move to a few feet ...

Thanks Shorts for the Tips I'll try that. But I'm kinda afraid to lift my feet off the ground. Because all these turning are done in a small parking garage. And these Uturns are Full Locked Uturns. And once I go wobbly, it's over and the bike is going down. For I am too short to support it, or maybe ...

The reason why I asked was because I've been dropping my bike doing U turns. I can do the Left turns at a very slow speed with my foot down, but the Right turns are where it's dropping. I'm trying to re practice those U turns in the MSF classes. I did it with a 250 Cruiser but when I did mess up, I ...

Yeah to get the M1 license. The MSF class Waves the Riding part of the DMV test. You still need to prove to them that you can take the written test. If you didn't take the written test, then I am one jealous punk, cause I had to do it. Even though I knew I had 90% of the questions right, it's a TEST ...

I've only met one police cop. And he was super cool. It was when we were trying to shoot a commercial for a school project. And we decided to make a commercial about our film school. We used a rider and had her do tricks.

She was poppin wheelies, Fishtailing, and riding on the handle bars. And the ...
