Afternoon!

Sorry if this has been posted with the answer I need, but I can't find it!

My friend has purchased a Yamaha YBR 125 2014 and it sits a little too high for her (she's 4'11" and this was the best bike we could get in her budget). Her toes touch the floor, but as a new rider we want her to be a little more comfortable and feel secure on the bike.

We've softened the rear suspension and are looking into carving out the foam from the seat, but in a worst case scenario we would look at a lowering kit.

I've had a look online and cannot seem to find one for a YBR 125, only the 250.

Does anyone know if this can be used on the 125 or if there is another kit that would be more sufficient.

Thanks,

Geezey.

Bigger boots or slide one cheek off the seat. Don't go altering that ride position because she can't touch the floor. Only 1 foot is needed. Other rests on rear brake Wink
