How short are you?

I'm 5'2" and short in the leg (27"), and I had about 1" taken off my seat - shave the sides as well, as it helps the legs go down straighter. (Unfortunately, the company that did it aren't in business any more) I can just get the balls of both feet on the ground, or one foot flat by slightly shifting my weight. It feels scary at first, but as you get more confident, you won't find it a problem.

As for doing your DAS, I did mine on a stock GS500. Just ask the instructors what they use, as there are plenty of short people out there wanting to pass their tests!

Welcome to the fold!
