Ahoy my fellow bikers

I want to find out how safe or good idea it is to put lowering links on a bike. I am a real short sh!t (1.67m), and are looking for a Yamaha XT660R. I climb on one in a dealer shop a week ago, and only my one big toe could reach the ground, while my other foot was hanging in the air :eek:

I live in a town with many potholes, and my current bike, Kawasaki ER6n, is a road bike, not made for these roads. I am not going to ride out mountains or anything, but 1 or 2 gravel roads would be nice.

To be honest - I know NOTHING about bikes. I climb on, start and go. So, please advise me in simple terms, because English is my 3rd language

Thanks
