Hey i ride a cr 80 currently . I have decided i could ride a cr 125 if it were only and inche or two shorter... (i need to comfortably touch because i ride woods) i was wondering if White brothers or any other company made these i want this bike because the 80 has become a little boring and i could use the extra power. please help if any company (white bros. or otherwise) how much does the bike lower?

You can lower the rear end by elongating the lower subframe holes-i got it nearly a inch lower this way.

ive also heard of companies and factories cutting the sub-frame mounts and shortening them. easy enough to do w/a welder. just keep in mind that you will change the way the bike feels and handles,but with you short stature you may like. im not sure about a good starting measure for shortening it.....any suggestions guys. i know this is a common mod

You can have the suspension componets lowered internally that way when you grow you can reverse it bake to stock. Call some shops

There are some lowering linkage kits but they are usually for the Motard type racers , XR650 etc. White Brothers handles some of them.
