would love to

however I am certain that I would grind hard parts. I am 5'2" and ruined a Frog Tog pants first time I wore it. I would love to lower the bike but I ride a bit agressively and tend to scape things already. I have a date scheduled with Mean City Cycles to get the seat reworked. They claime that they can get me 2 inches lower.

I dropped my 99 one inch by changing the shocks and having the forks lowered the same amount. I didn't drop my 03. Four inch mufflers drug driveways and curb steps too much.
