Hello!

I'm almost 5.2 and have had to change the SV a bit so that I can reach the floor, its also my first motorbike so I had to be a little drastic until I got a little more experience.

I would suggest the longer links and the lowered seat, rather than a gel seat, which I think you can get on the suzuki website? You can also change the preload and drop the forks but that does affect the handling.

I bought my seat of ebay, pre-cut and I must say it does make things much easier on the old bum. Its got about a inch cut out, its not a great job, so you could probably do it yourself if you get a staple gun.

Are you after the lower seat? Have a look at the Suzuki one for £28 here

I'm pretty sure the K4 and K5 seat are identical.
