It was the right height, I put an FMF pipe on it for more power! I could touch the ground, magic! I like the electric start, so that restricts me! I'm only 5 foot 1 and the CRF250X is huge! I've put a lowering link on it, changed the suspension, cut the foam out of the seat. It's nearly there now! Power is awesome, but it's heavy! I think sometimes the guys definitely do forget that we're learners and don't remember back that far! I certainly do remember flailing around Woodhill in the deep sand!!
    Dont for get the high heal boots.

    I've ridden both, the ttrs not that much different from the dr-z except it's got an E start. I think Sammis after something a bit more grunty!

    Yeah would have to be on a break it, you fix it though. She's keen to get back on the bike in the near future, so it would have to be returned as it was before.
