DRZ400 shock replacement
Hi everyone,
Next spring I will be getting a DRZ400. That will be the bike for my next big trip.
Now, considering the sort of punishment it is going to get, and as I need to get it lowered considerably, I am a bit concerned about fitting a lowering link. That may cause problems, brake at worse moment ...
I am considering the option of replacing the rear shock, for one that would lower the bike. Is there a lot of choice there? Has anyone done this and which one is recommended?
Also, in addition, the cheap option would be to buy a handlebar raisers and slide the forks, but there is limited space.
Any suggestion regarding tha forks? Can we place shorter fork stanchions for example?
In addition to all that I will get the seat scooped out and gel seat inserted. I got that done few time on previous bikes and it works fine.
So in summary I am exploring expensives options to lower the bike.
If anyone has suggestions on this, please let me know.
Cheers.
