    to lower or not to lower?

    So - my baby came home with me today. I have the invoice in front of me ... and it appears that I paid around US$145 to have the lowering done - that is shaving the seat as well as the lowering by moving the shock ... I gained around 6cm which is enough to put me flat on the balls of my feet. We...

    to lower or not to lower?

    I went and sat on her again yesterday after the lowering to check the height, and apart from shaving the seat foam a bit, she is almost ready! Definitely different from the HD.

    How much did you pay for your FZ6R?

    Ive been reading this with interest. Here in South Africa, I just paid $10 290 for a brand new Black 2009 FZ6R. I took her immediately, on a trailer, to my local mechanic for lowering to fit my stature and at the same time to have her sprayed the white colour I wanted. The costs of these two...

    to lower or not to lower?

    It does seem like you ladies in the US have a lot more options than we do here. I am having a whole custom lowering job done on my brand new FZ6R - I have not even ridden her yet - 5'1" short so I manage to brush the floor with my feet.
