Vez Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Let the tires down a bit Im not familiar with the XT, but most bikes with mono shock and a swinging arm linkage are modifiable by changing the linkage arms for a longer ones to lower the bike, so i presume it is possible with an XT125R. Heres a link that mentions a kit for the XT125R http://ravenbladerider.wordpress.com/2009/01/29/lowering-kits-from-m-p/ Vez. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LMRacing69 Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Hi, Does anyone know how to adjust the height on a Yamaha XT 125 R 2010 model ? Thanks Tom I have a 57 reg. and tbh i wasn't aware that you can adjust the height. i think its just a naturally low bike as its a mixture of on and offroad. probs why it hasn't got much ground clearance for taking it on the rough stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yamaha-xt-125-r Posted June 2, 2010 Author Share Posted June 2, 2010 Thanks for the replies. I will take it to the shop, need to make it a bit lower, cant reach the floor lol, I think there is an adjuster nut on this model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gas up - Let's Go! Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 I think there is an adjuster nut on this model. Isn't that the pre-load? it won't make the bike any lower, but if you 'loosen' it it will make the bike sag more when you are on it. I didn't think these bikes were tall in the first place....

I didn't think these bikes were tall in the first place.... not sure what it is but there is a some sort of adjustment under the suspension which looks like it will lower it, I am 6 feet tall and I can only just reach the floor with tips of my toes, its just a little too high for me when I pull up at a junction.
