Try putting a floor jack under the bike just under the dog bones. and lower it slowly

thats how i just did mine. i actually jacked mine up by the cats.

yea on my 06 i had help but we did the same , used a jack to move the swing arm but no help this time

if it was not for my wife it would have hit the ground

any way gp motors in houston sells the bones , im going to pic some up in the morning

 

[m_ridgeway]

used a jack on the arm? that wouldnt help....

i left mine on the side stand then jack up the bike by frame or whatever you can get it on close to the rear. you can tell when the weight is of the bones they have a lil side to side play.

Live and learn, hope the fingers in tact. Also check lock left and right to see if your grips make contact with the fairing. It will lock your front brakes.

i've lowered my busa and all those that had a jack (esp. a small jack) underneath..thats the way to do it. it really helps lining up the holes.

hey man don't forget that you need a shorter kickstand along with that. Did the same to my bike, you are going to love it!
