How to increase ground clearance...
#3
If changing the approach angle isn't an option, you might be able to grab a few extra millimeters by sliding the forks all the way down the triple tree (if that's not already maxxed out). Also, you can have some washers made to stick above the rear springs, inside the retainer buckets. I don't think I'd go any thicker than a 1/4 inch or so, but that might be all you need. Lastly, maybe you can find a set of larger profile tires??

After that, I'd go for the diet idea or get a new bike Smile
