Needing to lower my cb

[Gremlinsteve_imp]

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: WM : Laydown Kit [WM-5301-00]

If not mistaken, there already was a thread or question like yours some time ago...shorter rear shocks or so???....search Forum.
Here are a few, good luck.

Gremlinsteve, I have seen on this forum someone bolted on T100 shocks to lower the rear...

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

Provide pics when completed, please

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

Awesome

My update
I just bought some shocks from a triumph t120
So I’ll be going that route

 

[Cormanus]

let us know how you get on, Gremlinsteve.

That's what I have on my DLX. Works for me.
