Neat product.

It seems like a stock to -3 would be a better seller. At least for those who dont like lowered bikes but have a short girlfriend that likes to ride.

mine on the 08 i can actually go up 1 inch but i wouldnt recommend going down 3 unlees you have some serious suspension done i set mine at -2 i can touch the ground now
and the tail actualy sits level with the tank it looks like a 600
and since i removed the stickers most people dont know its a 1k

Nice product

NOTE: Please remember lowering your bike changes the way your bike will handle especially in the corners under hard riding conditions, make sure you talk to people like Speedycycles and Slowguy and others who really know this stuff before playing with the ride height of your bike.

I'm not saying "don't do it", I am saying "do it smart".

One other thing, when you lower your bike, your kickstand gets longer by comparison, something to consider when parking on uneven surfaces.
