Having been a proud owner of a FZS since 2009 - and hoping to ride it until either the bike or myself are for scraps. Anyhow, SWMBO is almost as tall as me. Being 178 cm. She tried a Honda VFR, some year 2000 model, around 600-750 cc, not really sure.
She said she loved how the saddle was almost level with the rider's part of the saddle, so she could hide from the wind better, and the foot pegs were some 5 or more cm lower, making it a lot more comfortable for the knees.
Now, I'd rather not get the plastic clad, hard to maneuver in the city Honda beast, but rather make old Fazer comfier. Here are my questions:
1) What is the cheapest/easiest way to lower pilon footpegs?
2) Is making pilon saddle a bit higher a problem because of the wind?

Most things done in a hurry need to be done again - patiently.
