Lowering kits,

Post by flyerjaz »

I am not sure if i read it on here, but someone was selling lowering kits for the rear of the bike. They are a dealer In Minn. He was on Ebay but dropped his posting.
I would like to get a hold of him to buy a set.. Maybe someone has a lead.

Thanks

Before you just lower the rear of the 1700, think of lowering the front.

When I changed my fork springs and added the proper amount of preload into the front forks it lowered my front end. I'm now flat footed when I'm at a stop. Plus the Voyager rides and handles much better. It's just better balanced with a littler more weight on the front of the Voyager.

I'm 5'9" tall and weigh 173 lbs, inseam is 29"

I even made some brackets to move the floorboards back 3.5"
