i am rather sure by now we have all seen these: http://www.whaccessories.com/Lowering-Kits-Buell.htm and probably even stumbles across the right ups on this forum about them, noting that they give a "spongey" and undoubtedly unwanted feel and performance.
my stupid question of the day is: what happens when you put this lowering cup on a SL shock, but with an R (blue) spring? are the springs the same length and rate? if not, how would this spring swap and lowering cup combo act with a SL shock?
i am sure there have been write ups for this before, but honestly, i been at it for about 3 weeks and cant seem to find one with this specific info...
the reason why i ask is bc i LOVE my Bolt and will NEVER get rid of it...i will store it away for collectors' value before i sell it...i digress, but the fact is i stand 5'7", i am embarrassingly low in the saddle zone, and i still have around 1-2" of lowering needed to stand flat footed on both sides at a stop light. it just feels safer to me, and i feel much more stable when taking off from a light when FULLY upright. this is strictly a question for researching my options on how to get that tid bit lower without compromising comfort or performance...
