Default taming it down

ok i didnt know weather this should go in jetting or not, but a friend of mine is looking at buying a bike for woods riding. right now we're looking at kx100's, kx 125's and maybe a gasgas 125 or 200. i told her i'd help her get her bike set up for her, one of those things being making the bike usable for a beginner. when i bought my bike (my first btw) it had g2 throttle cams with it, which have been a life saver on more than one occasion, so im thinking a set of those would be good. im also thinkin that going for lower that stock gearing may be a good idea too. is there any other things we can do to make the bikes easier to ride? it'll be alot of low rpm running as she first starts out so what would we have to do to the jetting so that it wont stall at low rpm but wont throw her on her back at the same time? any other suggestions? shes about 5'7" or so and about 130ish?lbs. and most of the riding will be in more tight technical woods.
