For a beginner, yes. Balancing and manuevering a heavy bike can be daunting for someone who's not used to it. You cannot just lower a bike in the rear for seat height. It totally compromises the handling of the bike. I have a hard time reaching the ground on my RC51 but I still have to raise the rear another 10mm for the swingarm to be at the appropriate "golden" angle.
