  |  Need some advice on lowering my 04 Intruder vs800
Hi, I'm new to this forum so first let me say hello. I decided to learn to ride last May. I went shopping for a bike that I could touch the ground on. Since I am only 4'11" that was a challenge. At 1st I started looking at all the 250's I could find but everytime I would look at one the salesman would say "Oh you don't want a 250, you will outgrow it too fast" so heeding their advise I bought an 04 Suzuki Intruder. I took the MSF basic riders course. (twice)  Anyway to make a long story as short as possible....I love the bike but when I would stop on uneven ground I would drop the bike, broke both rear turn signals. I was losing my confidence, my legs were bruised from the knees down. I think I spent more time under it than on it  so I went back to a different dealer and bought a Virago 250, I now have almost 3,000 miles on this bike and want to ride my Intruder but really feel even more like I need to lower it. I need to do this as inexpensively as possible so any info on how to do this would be appreciated |
