I am an older female rider (Mum of teenagers). I ride a Kawasaki Super Sherpa, which I love, however I am finding I have a burning need to experience the joys of an actual dirt bike before I feel I am past the age for it. We have a KDX200 which I tried riding but am quite limited by the fact I cannot reach the ground so can only come to a stop where my husband can 'catch' the bike. And, of course it is too high for me to kick over. I have tried, without success, to convince him to put a lowering link on it. And so I am trying to persuade him that our younger son's next bike ought to be a Honda CRF-R, (which he would only get to ride when I am done with it.) My husband is shaking his head to this idea too, saying it will be too hard for me to kick over? What is your experience with this? We used to have a xlr125 which I kicked over without much trouble. I rarely stall these days so would restarting the bike be an issue other than when I can off? Thanks.
