front fork height questions
« on: August 10, 2010, 12:26:37 AM »
Hey all I wanted know about front fork height on a cb750f1.  Specifically if I wanted to lower my front end by an inch or an inch and a half would this mess my suspension up real bad?  I know that there is a proper way of doing this, just don't really know how, any input would be much appreciated, thanks.

Lowering the front without lowering the rear will affect handling.  Are you planning to choke up on the current forks or get shorter tubes?  Chocking up may interfere with your handlebar mount unless you already have a riser or offset clamp.
Can I have a motorcycle when I get old enough?
If you take care of it.
What do you have to do?
Lot’s of things. You’ve been watching me.
Will you show me all of them?
Sure.
Is it hard?
Not if you have the right attitudes. It’s having the right attitudes that’s hard.
