Soft contact you lose 5 degrees, thats about it. Gotta give a little to get a little. At least you dont have to worry about dragging fairing once you lower it like on a Jap

Well, whether they have done it or not, I can guarantee that it can be done. I can give you an exact list of part numbers that you can give to them to order so it cannot be messed up. If they have any questions, tell them to feel free to give me a call here at my dealer for a full scoop on the whole process. I do have one revision to the labor I said that we charged to get it done. Service here said that if they do it again, labor would be closer to 5 hours due to the lower triple tree procedure.

ok thanks, if you like to give me an exact list of parts that would br great, im putting my bike in the shop soon. so it would be very appriciated... Puntandkick@aol.com is my email if you just want to do it that way. may be easier.
Left Fork - J0121.1AE
Right Fork - J0122.1AE
Rear Shock - K0410.1AE
Kickstand - L1167.1AE
Lower Triple Clamp - J0106.02A8C
These are exact part numbers. Just be sure to copy them down EXACTLY. Buell part numbers do tend to run very close, and one digit off could mean that it will not fit. Any other questions, feel free to let me know.
so if i give these numbers to the parts dep, they will be able to get these parts, would it be cheaper if i buy these parts from somewhere else...
Unless you can find someone who has parted out a CG on ebay or something, I dont think you will be able to get the stuff anywhere else cheaper. I am sure they will look at you funny if you walk in, hand them a list of the correct part numbers to do the kit they said couldn't be done and show them up. lol It will be awesome. Let me know how it pans out. I want to know what they say.
Does anyone know the part number for the lower clamp for the 06 xbr?
Stock 2006 XBR Lower Triple Clamp - J0106.3A8A
