lowering bike??
Is it possible to lower the bike by an inch or two to make it more comfortable in stop and go traffic?

Re: lowering bike??
Lowering kits are available for nearly every bike made. Lowering forks is easy, special linkages are available to relocate the rear shocks to lower a bike an inch or two. Check with your dealer.
Be aware though, lowering it will affect your ground clearance cornering.

Re: lowering bike??
Oh yeah why would you want to lower it? I have some very nice deep scrapes on my left muffler from cornering I had to replace the smaller heat shield where that pipe come out from under the bike, that one was destroyedMr Jensee wrote:Lowering kits are available for nearly every bike made.
