Lowering XT600
I know lowering bikes has been cover in this forum a lot but has anyone ever cut and angled the swinging arm to lowered a bike that way?
I love my 2003 XT600e but sadly my leg length is way to short for this bike. Ive had two silly falls due to not getting my footing quickly and the weight of the bike has beaten me having me going over sideways.
I know there are lowering links out there that will give 35mm lower but Id like a lot more, plus they're expensive for a small 35mm drop.
I know it will sacrifice suspension travel but for the type of riding I do 2 or 3 inches lower shouldn't be a problem.
Ive picked up a second hand swinging arm off ebay so when it arrives the project gets started.
Any ideas or comments more than welcome. Hooroo, Kevin. (Short arse Kev )
