suspension lowering - shorter rider

[StuartWags]

Has anyone ever dropped the suspensions on a storm? What bits are required? Are they custom or off the shelf?

Hagon do a shorter shock as I know the Callum had one on his bike when he bought it

you could always get platform motorbike boots....
i'm sure I've seen something on ebay for lowering the storms ride height, would it also lower the ground clearance tho?

Didn't Benny accidentally put part of the linkage in ''upside down'' which had the effect of lowering the rear, which he was quite happy with, being short of leg...

I havent lowered my storm, but did lower my other bike as its a bit taller and i have stumpy legs, I soon raised it back up again as it felt horrible to ride, just have to make sure I can get my toes down on solid ground

Yes he did. I CBA searching though.

they (wife) would be ok with loosing ground clearance. It would be best to drop the forks a bit as well . I will have look to see just how much i would need to drop it.

I did see a Suzuki with a drop kit on it on Saturday. That was done with a rear suspension linkage mod and dropping the forks ..... 45 mm lower at the seat

you can get a kit for the Daytona 675, they are quite tall for a midrange bike.

seems like a lot of work though, don't know if this Russian lady is available she has a 43" inch inside leg (or something)

Hagon do a shorter shock which does the job nicely.
