As you're getting down to running/walking pace add a bit of rear to smooth out the final stop.
Once you get to a full stop point the bars left, left foot down & the bike should tip over in a predictable manner. Point the bars forward & use the takeoff to stabilise the bike, once you're moving you can get your foot back on the peg (don't drag it for too long, on the peg keeps the bike more stable).
Try that before going for the lowering kit |
Man, I still have sooo much to learn about riding. Thanks for the advice, I will definitely work on that. I think I'm going to try shaving the seat down before I decide to add lowering links to it, maybe the seat alone will help a lot.
