Learner bike recommendation?

[Shauna Carleton]

I am 5'2 and have found that at the class I attended on the weekend that I need a bike which has a clutch close in as I have issues with the clutch. I had my first lesson on a GN125 and had to take my gloves off to try and get the clutch to smoothly let out.

Many thanks for any help, as I've asked my neighbours to give me extra lessons during the weeks so really do need my own bike.

I recommend going to see Jimmy at TSS Red Baron re a Yamaha Virago.
Narrow width at the front of the seat enables your legs to touch down easier. Believe it or not a Hyosung GV250 may also suit your height.

I brought a Yamaha XV250 from motorad today, brilliant fit.

before you blame the GN125 for that was the Clutch adjusted to suit you.
So many bikes are simply poorly set up

There is a lot that can be done to improve the fit of a bike to the rider. PM me and I can put you onto some mechanical types who know how to achieve a good fit between you and your ride.
