I was looking at the Ninja 650R. I am kind of short so I am not sure if that is going to work out. I went to a dealer yesterday and they told me my best bet would be to get the ZX6R. They said they could lower that one about 3.5 inches but the 650R could only go about 1.5. I may look around a little more and see what other shops think.

Thanks! Not sure yet I am kind of short and having trouble finding a fit. The dealer suggested the ZX6R but I think they just might be trying to sell me a more expensive bike. I had my eye on the 650R but they told me they could not lower it enough for me. I need about 3.5 inch.

Welcome to the happy Kawi Family! I'm glad to hear more girls getting into riding. We need more women riders!
