    Russell Seat, Adjustable Links, Adjustable Kick Stand, Heli Bar Installation.

    I was contemplating lowering the front forks but haven't quite figured it out. Am I right to assume it's just a matter of loosening the pinch bolts slightly and letting the fork tubes ride up? I do like the height the way it is now. I will be mindful of the lower clearances. If it becomes a...
