Hi Guys

Im new to the forum so hope im posting in the correct section. Had this posted in general but think it might have been wrong!

I have just bought a mates WR450 which I have ridden many times. The only thing is he is quite a bit taller than me and I struggle to put both feet flat on the ground which is hampering my technical riding. Is it an easy "fix" to lower the bike by say about 5 to 7 cm. Will this have a big impact on bike performance?

I am still a novice enduro/adventure rider and not planning on racing anytime soon so not worried about major performance issues.

Any advice will be great.

Damo
