Less ground clearance is about it. Rox riser works well. Wouldn't really need to lower the front, tho. I lowered the rear 1" & left the front alone. It seemed O.K. to me. YMMV |

I changed star kickstand to a XT kickstand after lowering the rear shock with Jason's collar |

I used a lowering collar also. It worked fine except I overpowered the spring when loaded up for touring. Keep us posted on the rebuild. I want to lower mine so I can run the tall seat & still reach the ground. I cut my stock kickstand down also. Good Luck!, Murf |

I used Knight Designs. They are a vendor on here, I think. There is also another outfit but their name escapes me at this time. I like the K D 's just fine & they were cheaper. Murf |
