to be honest i very rarely have both feet on the ground, left foot down and right on the brake. so with the bike leaning to the left you should be fine. you dont come across as a silly little girl who knows nothing about bikes and only into it for the social scene (if you know what i mean). so you wouldnt of bought the bike if you felt it were a bit much.
your clued up on bikes and probably know more than most on here.

Platform boots dogbones dropped forks and some foam shaved out of the seat should do it.
Oh and some crash bungs just in case.

Thanks Guys!

Yh seat is being done this week as is the lower dogbones and forks and the restriction!

End of the day if i am still struggling I have spoken to Hagon and they can do shorter shocks. obviously bearing in mind the ground clearance, will just have to see how i get on.

i have some bike boots with a bit of heel so i'm gonna see how i go if i need a little more help will get some of them daytona boots, every little helps as tescos says!

The bike is in mint condition with a nice can, radiator guard and crash bungs already fitted!

It's just about observation and planning and being ready to put either foot down depending which side the road slopes away from you.
