I was wandering were I could find parts for a 1980 Yz 250. I'm looking for OEM and aftermarket.?
you can get seats with less padding in which lowers hieght so shorter people can reach floor easier or get an upholster to take some padding out of your seataltering suspension is possible but not by much without altering how bike handles
all depends on how much you have to spend and how much it neeeds to be lowered

This is simple, take the wheels off, you will also save a lot of fuelWhy do Harley bashers bother to write answers to harley questions?
Letting the air out of the tyres lowers it by an inch or so! Only joking. You can get lowering kits. These usually fit to the rear shock. Check out MPS or simular people, they'll probably have one. Another option, which a friend of mine did on her bike, is to take an inch or so of foam off the seat. Don't know if this can be done on a Fazer but its cheaper, and doesn't mess with your bikes setup too much!Would someone recommend the best street tire for a 06 Hayabusa?
yes u can lower it by the suspension, i did it with mine, and it hardens the bike up, not so squashie around corners! hope this helps bud!!Why is my oil cap/dipstick popping off when I put my Harely in gear after warming it up?
the fork tubes can be raised slightly in the triple clamps (about an inch) , a loop or two can be cut out of the rear suspension springs (or slightly shorter shocks fitted), any rear suspension adjustments available can be used (the notches and pin on the shock body) the seat foam can be sculpted down (then recovered), lower profile tires can be fitted, or boots with a thicker sole can be worn. i am assuming that you are not tall enough to reach the ground and would like to ride this bike any way you can. be aware that any changes to suspension will affect the handling. the bigger the change, the more the handling will be affected. at most, doing all of these changes (to the max)will still only drop the seat by about 2-3 inches, i hope that is enough. it may be cheaper to buy another bike that fits you better, and it will handle in a way that is more like what the designers and engineers had in mind when they made the bike. altering stock suspension is not usually a good do it yourself project unless you fully understand what each of the changes will do to the stability of the bike.For the rear you'll need new dog bones, some folks call 'em lowering links, search ebay and you'll see them, for the front you'll have to swap forks with a YZF 600 because they're adjustable and the stock Fizzers aren't. They're a direct bolt on so easy as pie.
