lowered gs850 experience pics?

[rockhammer]

Any gs850 lowered out their? What are you experience? Any pics of before and after? I would love to see em. I am thinking about it . Going to put in new suspension and cant decide what to do. I like the dyna glide profile wondering if lowering the rear end a bit will help kinda accomplish that with my gs850L

Not good for the shaft drive to change the angles much.

12 " shock?

How about 12 inch?

i second that...u joints reqiree a certain angle to work properly....without that angle u can get vibration, or u joint failure...

if u want a lowered look put the rear springs on the lowest settings...maybe raise your forks up a bit

or get a fat chick on it....

For now I will leave it. It seems to ride smooth. I have other things to work on . I appreciate the response.

You could also look for a lower profile tire, maybe a 130/80/17 instead of a 130/90/17 I know bridge stone makes them . but it maybe a little wider as it is an aspect ratio on tire sizes.
