Looks like an elegant and clever design.

Did you lower the front by sliding the fork tubes up?

The lowering links will run $99.99 and should be available in the next couple days in billet finish.
We are working on the lowering kickstand at the moment which should be available in billet finish by next Mon.-Tues. or in black anodized contrast cut in a couple weeks.
The kickstand cost will be $109.99. We will do a kickstand and lowering link special for $199.99 pair.
To keep handling good we suggest always lowering the front and rear on a motorcycle the same amount. To accomplish this we suggest sliding the forks up in the trees 1.75".
When the front and rear are lowered even the bike will require a shorter kickstand hence the billet lowering kickstand.
Will send pics of kickstand through as we prototype it.
As for preorder just call in and we will get you in the system!

Thank you everyone for your interest and please let us know what other parts we can help with.

This is intertesting! My wife could use this link. It is funny that I had mentioned some time ago that I thought there was room at the top of the shock to make a link for lowering the bike. (See here: http://www.600cc.org/forum/208331-post31.html) Apparently I wasn't the only one who thought so! Kudos for a GREAT design! I'll be ordering one! :D

Question? Are there ANY clearance issues with this mod?

Okay question. I know everyone suggest because of handling to lower front and rear but (I know this is at my own risk, lol) I had my ninja lowered 2" just the rear and I never noticed a difference in handling. Is this just for hardcore riding that you notice a difference? What kind of differences are we talking about? If I lower just the back will I still need a shorter kick stand? Someone please explain!!!:D

Lifting and Lowering the rear end on a motorcycle will drasticly affect the handling. We always suggest to try and keep the front and rear even. As you lower the rear end the bike will steer slower and run wide in corners. When you raise the rear end the bike will steer quicker and oversteer in corners but the bike can become nervous handle and dangerous.

Thought I would post a few more pictures. Here is a pic a FZ6R with front and rear lowered evenly with our billet lowering link, billet lowering kickstand, our Black Anodized Fairing spikes, Chrome Adjustable Mirror and black anodized gas cap.

Question

Roaring Toyz: What if we only need about an inch lowered, can we do that with this link or does it have to be lowered the full 1.75"? Let me know.

Thanks!
