Hey guys!
Hey people, newbie here!
I'm from leicester, 26yr old girl! Who is a mega short ****! I passed my restricted acess back in september and the SV seems to be the only bike (after some messing with) i can touch the floor on! I'm after a 55 plate onwards, naked in black!! |

Re: Hey guys!
Ow do.
I'd advise getting a lower seat. Try http://www.tonyarcher.co.uk/. A f##k sight cheaper than OEM lower seat, and it won't mess up the handling like lowering the suspension will.

Re: Hey guys!
Why have i gotta watch out for bear and hovis? LOL
Lowering the seat won't be enough! I have sat on one with a lowered seat and could only just reach! I'm happy to lower the back front as well! The way i look at it is i can't ride the bike the way it is so i won't feel the difference in handling! Trust me i am short! LOL Thanks for the welcome! x |

Re: Hey guys!
Welcome! You can't be as short as my mate Kayleigh, she is proper miniature (without being an actual midget)! And she works in a mental asylum, so she must be tough. Don't tell her I said that.
You'll love the bike, so now join your relevant section and get on a ride out! (later in sunnier weather). |

Re: Hey guys!
Croeso! Several ladies on here have lowered SVs and do fine with them. Hope you find a bike.
