I don't know of any lowering links for pre 98's -
no lowering links that i know of exist because pre98 kat dog bones are curved with bearings. you can have local welders make them however, at own risk. probably best way is to get a corbin(generally 1/2" shorter than stock height seat) and go down a series in tires, so 170/70 go to a 120/60 or something. that should give you near that inch

corbins site doesnt offer a seat for pre 98 600'sComment

Best bet would be to talk to somebody that rebuilds seats.
For example...http://www.sargentcycle.com/custserv.htm
They can cut it however you want.
If you do use one of these companies, I would recommend
that you get a second seat off of e-bay. That way if they need
to do recuts or refoaming, you are not without a bike for long.Comment

You can lower the front by loosening the TT clamps and sliding the fork tubes up a half inch of so, and have you tried to play with suspension setting at all?Florida, the only place where you need your windshield wipers and sunglasses. At the same time.

I'll say this:
The issue with lowering links on the Pre 98 is:
1. the link curves
2. the link has a bearing.
That means a lowering link needs to be:
a. the old one cut and welded
b. machined ($$$)Comment
