Anyone got any idea on how to quickly and easily lower my cb about 1 inch or so
I don’t have a lot of time to build a system. So I’m looking to just buy and bolt it on

Don't know of any "bolt-on" way to lower the CB. You can slide the forks up in the triple tree slightly and add shorter rear shocks. That will get you a little. You can also look into getting your seat worked on to remove some height.

Webike has a set of lowering links listed. That they may not have, or may not fit your model. But here is the link:

Best way is to buy shorter shocks and then raise the forks an equal distance in the triple clamps. Have you looked into a lower seat? I did see a kit somewhere that moved the upper mounting point for the stock shocks to lower the ride height.

Thanks for the direction
I’ll research each one carefully and decide
What’s right for me
The t100/120 shock sounds easiest

I wonder how raising the CB two or three inches would go. Hmmm.
