I like your ingenuity but how is your bike handling curves with your rear shock like that?

[rensosanchez]

Take the cover off, cut the foam lower, or take it to a upholstery shop. Might not be the best for long rides but it will put your toes on the ground.

I think I'm going this route. Thank you!!

Hey renso, i live in the sfv too! Don't have any of the parts you need but it's nice to hear there are some Buells in the area. I hardly ever see any

I didnt lower it like that, I bought from a height challenged owner it was on a SCG to boot. I am 6' tall. I restored it to its correctness.

If you lower the rear the front must be lower the same amount, to handle correctly. I have even taken out the fork springs and used the cutting torch cutting off 1 inch, I know I will get blasted for telling you that .
