did the lowering flip, worked out great 11 Months, 3 Weeks ago
changed out the pulley to a 31 tooth and did the flip to lower ~2 inches. I love these bags but i still wish i could get them lower. I put about 200 miles on it so far and only scraped once (my first time, scared the crap outta me!) and have had no issues w/ bottoming out. I only ride solo, am 6'2" and 220 lbs so no problems for me at all.

Good deal. Did mine back about 7mo. ago really like it. I haven't felt the need for a heavier spring yet but I am concidering the that 465 shock I've been hearing about.
