This is interesting to me and I am considering lowering my Roadie; two questions: 1) does it affect two-up riding from a handling standpoint ( i.e. bottoming out)? 2) does it make it harder to get the motorcycle jack under the bike? I have just barely enough room to get the jack uder the frame now, and I would think that lowering would make it impossible. I have the jack that comes from Harbor Freight or Sears and is hydralic pump up two rubber rails etc..
thanks for any imput

I love the look of your bike. It's screaming to be lowered IMHO. I think it would really look sharp to get the rear fender hugging the tire. I may end up doing this to mine in the near future.

If you're a bigger american and/or you and the wife are weight unchallenged you might not want to go too low. The flip is too low for us. 255 pound rider and 160 pound (6foot) passenger. We bumped and bottomed out even with the progressive wound 850/1200 lb spring. Unflipped, the floor boards still drag ALL the time. My 2c
