I'm 5' 6" and know what you are talking about. I put Kouba #1 links on mine and it wasn't worth the effort (yes, I know the #2 and #3 links are made for lowering the bike, not the #1)JHNguyen89 said:Just got a KDX220 which is my first dirt bike. Having the bike just a tad bit lower would be a bit more confidence inspiring. What do you guys suggest? I'm 5'7".

My advice is to ride the bike as is, at least for 10-20 hours before making a decision to alter it. Yes, it's tall, but you can get used to it. Just remember to keep moving! ....the tall height only gives us short guys problems when the bike STOPS! :laugh:
Not a noticeable difference in height (the #1 link isn't supposed to make much difference there), and not a noticeable difference in performance (the #1 link WAS supposed to make a difference here).JHNguyen89 said:May I ask why it wasn't worth the effort? Not low enough?
That was one of the things that I was concerned about.. not making a big enough difference vs the time/money spent in lowering it. Though, either way, I don't mind shaving down the seat a bit.
