[QUOTE="holeshot, post: 691649, member: 17202"] I was bouncing back and forth between all three 250 four strokes (Kawasuki, Honda, Yamaha) on the local dealer's showroom floor. (I didn't actually ride them ;) ), thinking that the Yamaha would be the tallest. Using the very unscientific "how far does the seat come up to my pocket when I'm standing beside it" method, I'd be surprised if the seat height on all three bikes varied more that 1/8" of an inch. Actual feel when riding them may be somewhat different (the thin Yamaha seat won't compress as much). Things must be different this year, because I could have picked a CRF250 (if I were on the market for new bike) right then and there, instead of the usual "you are #62 on the waiting list and will pay a $1500 premium for being so impulsive" routine. Ooooop, this thread was about shortening a YZF450. Some people have had success lowering (shortening) the suspension (done by a reputable suspension shop). [/QUOTE]
