I see and agreed. I do like the relatively low seat height on my Vader along with it's light weight all makes it very manageable, especially as a newer rider but also I would like to think I will still appreciate it's nimble frame as I gain experience and perhaps add a little power to the bike. I suppose I wouldn't mind a couple inches shaved off it's height, although for me I would then (and kind of now) want the foot pegs moved a little down + forward or backward to give me some more room there. I wonder if your stock Bucaneer rear shocks are adjustable to the end of affecting seat height a little?
