i did something extememly similar years ago... with the lowering... BE EXTREMELY careful u don't smash the oil pan... I put a big hole in mine by hitting a pothole in NY traffic and it poured oil everywhere, allll over the back tire/exhaust.... I almost landed on my ass....View attachment 1599422

Lowered another 1inch 1/2 up front, modified stock seat, painted rims
Upcoming mods
Pipe, flash, tune, 2step, dual stage shift light, possible blue pinstripe around rims, possible drag tank, raise rear end and fine tune shock for better launch ability.....air shifter and rcc stg 1 following year!!!
Shooting for s swb street/strip sleeper
Any suggestions....thanks!!!
Already had a scare today...test launch to see how the new setup would launch and i wheelied hard and slammed down, luckily everything was OK
Had them installed with the paint job, your abosolutley right!!!!
lol, right on
No strap, thinking bout the brocks straps, but I thought it is to too low to strap, but I guess it would help with front hammering if I jus snug it
Yes, a billet pan. A strap will limit the amount the forks try and push the front up on the launch. Just remember to leave a little travel to land a wheelie, and ALWAYS loosen it up for daily riding.
It will.
Really it’s does not look strapped it’s just dropped.
Looks goodView attachment 1599422

He's slid the fork tubes up in the clamps, which brings the fender closer to the bottom of the nose. It'll hit eventually, either from landing a wheelie or a deep pothole. My forks are cut, which eliminates the need for a strap, but also reduces travel. They're slid up as well, the fender hits the nose sometimes.
Thanks again
So far no problems...50mile drive and it worked great...did a test launch and left a bit hard, wheelied and slammed with no problems!
