Default Lowering (front and rear)
Anybody else done this mod? I lowered mine 2" front and rear. Rides a little stiffer but I like it like that.

I haven't, thought about lowering the rear. Like the look but I don't wanna be leaving my pegs half ground on the curves.

man that bike's sweet ,, that looks ace

in fact it looks so good i think its a must do mod,, but Rivs right with the handling thing,, even tho i went up in wheel size to try to compensate the bike still grounds easier than before..

you should be ok on the RHS Riv,, its just the primary on the left thats a PITA
