Welcome! Lower an inch, change the seat, inserts in healed boots and you'll be right.

I've heard chipmunks ride pretty hard so you might want think about raising the pegs if you lower the bike - they scrape easily in stock position.

Thanks for all the support! Speaking of support, the low rider seat that I ordered was out of stock, so my money is back in my account. After looking around a bit, it seems that Corbin is the best low profile seat to get. Any info on if there are even lower profile saddle available? Or should I take the inquiry to a different part of the forum?

I notice you found the "who's the shortest......" thread. I'd get in touch with some of the other vertically challenged members for some tips. Welcome aboard and good luck.

Keep the money in your account, more in your wallet will raise you up lol.

I'd bring the stock seat to an upholstery shop, and ask how much they could take off. Probably get a more comfortable seat at a better price.

I was literally just researching that. Playing with the idea of doing it myself, too. (I'm a chronic do-it-yourselfer) I certainly have the stuff to get it done myself. Definitely going to read up on some tips, though. Plus saving that money will let me get some more platforms and go towards getting shorter shocks! Now if only I was mechanically inclined enough to install those shocks myself too... Safer not to try.
