Zup boys & girls! I am on my way to make a comeback after 8 years of the bike, i did quit back on 85cc so this is basically me getting a 125 for the first time in life the thing is that i am 5.3 ( short) What do you guys think i should do to make it more comfortable for my size.
Cut the subframe ( done by professional)
Lower seat
put on springs and valve the forks for me and maybe set them higher up in the triple clamps
Footpegs
Linkage switch
Lower barbend
Anything else i could do to make it better for me?

A rear lowering link will drop the bike around 10-15mm, you can then drop the forks through a similar amount..
Renthal McGrath/Short bend are nice and low. Its 999 in twinwall, cant remember the number for fatbar.
The Shop
See if you can beg, steal or borrow some different bar bends and the like to see what feels the most comfortable. Also try not to cut the seat down too much, especially at the front, as it can make it difficult to move far enough forward when you need too.
