I used lowering links, raised the forks in the triple tree, changed
to a flat corbin (although this won't lower it). Before, I cut some
of the foam out of the stock seat. I can now flat foot it at lights.
I'm 5'8 9/32 when I first get up. shorter later.

Just discovered that my center stand is for a lowered bike.
If you have a standard length center stand and are thinking about
lowering your bike but buying a new center stand was too expensive...
you now have the option of trading me your standard center stand for
my short one.
I am on the road for at least another month so if you are interested
email me (joe@...) or better yet try and leave a message on
my cell phone
