[QUOTE="richsp51, post: 1109457, member: 85522"] I too recently installed the Soupy's links and lowered the rear 20mm with them and lowered the front by 10mm via sliding the forks up the tree. The overall effect at the seat is perhaps 22mm. I cut this amount off the side stand at the foot side. I made a fixture and mounted the cut side stand and foot and took it to a local welding shop where they MIG welded it. Without making a fixture, it's next to impossible to get the foot alignment correct. For those in suburban Chicago, Bear Metal Welding & Fabrication in Lombard does a great job at a reasonable price. I now have the same lean angle as before the lowering. [/QUOTE]
