[QUOTE="madmike2, post: 939094, member: 151"] MAJOR snippage: What I didn't explain, and my assumption is, that changing the links and trying them before modifying everything or anything else could be cheaper than buying another seat and having it modified before swapping it for a test. If one did like the lowered bike, then one could/should modify the side stand. If not, one could have the OEM links re-installed. Of course, I would do it myself (I did help another local owner change his) and didn't consider what a shop might charge. OTH, the price of a second pilot seat to have modified, the time involved and then any added changes to the modified seat.... There have been those who've sent their newly made aftermarket seat back for revisions. As I mentioned, Kasey had her seat modified and her suspension remains OEM. I also agreed with the member who suggested sending a PM to Mary Ellen (MEM) for her input. Both Katherine and Mary Ellen are "slightly built" and similar in height. [/QUOTE]
