Lowering Link question...Jfcmr1 01-03-2007, 01:30 AM i purchased a vortex lowering link for my 06 r1 but the package says 04-05.. will this fit for the '06 as well? i'm just gonna drop my bike an inch and if its not enough i'm gonna have my seat shaved. 1longR1 01-03-2007, 08:48 AM yea its same. only differnce in 04 to 06 is 06 has longer swingarm by like 20mm. all suspension stuff is same. diabloo 01-04-2007, 02:03 PM i would not shave the seat. just do the lowering thru the link and forks. i shaved my seat on the previous bike (04 f4i) and regretted it every day after.
diabloo--> 1longR1 01-04-2007, 03:50 PM not much room to shave on newer models. plus there not comfortable at all. im not fan of shaving seat either..but you gotta do what you gotta do! | |
