'Course, that means you might be draggin' your floorboards a little more too, and your pipes. And your kickstand might not allow your scoot to lean as much (some bend the stand a little, others get the shorter kickstand).   Logged     FREE SPIRIT 2007 Silverado   The administrator has disabled public write access. #100007 Curt (User) Never to old to ride! Platinum Boarder Posts: 3070 Re:lowering bike questions 4 Months, 3 Weeks ago   I lowered mine with the Baron's lowering kit and when riding two up in the twisties I drag my pipes and the frame. I put on a progressive spring and it still drags. If you just ride and not two up you can try softening up your spring some.   Logged     Black Ice is Shinny, Black Ice is Deadly, Ya Wanna Ride My BlackIce?   The administrator has disabled public write access. #100019 dmfarms (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 386 Re:lowering bike questions 4 Months, 3 Weeks ago   mines lowered in the rear, so to be in the front too, i think it handles alot better...I don't drag....o.k. maybe a little......o.k. o.k. i drag alot   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access.
