I'm looking to buy a used SV650. I'm wondering if I can safely purchase an SV even if the seat is too tall for me. If so, how do I best go about lowering the seat height since I'd like to be flat footed. I've read about Sargent and Corbin seats.
Will it be necessary to lower the suspension? Can that be done without adversely affecting the handling of the bike. I'm 5'7'' with an 30.5-31'' inseam. I live in Colorado with twisty roads so I want to be able to lean the bike.
Here's a link which talks about lowering links.
