:D Hi Ollie, welcome to our community,the information your looking for can probably be found by entering "dog Bones " into the site search, this is what you will need to alter to significantly alter the ride height, and the suspension.

Complimented by harder springs and heavier oil in the forks.

hi guys, any suggestions on how to get hold of shorter 'dog bones'? as the ones that are on there aren't suitable for a cut/weld job :/
Thanks, Olie

5 or 6mm plate, grinder and pillar drill along with a spare few hours or a friendly engineering place and a homer......
