Hi guys,
I just bought a 94' Kat 600 and was wondering what's the maximum rear tire width and lowest profile I can put on it. It's got a fairly new set of tires on it (140/80 and 110/80) but I want to go lower profile i.e., 150-160/50-60 if possible because the bike is my GF and she is short. I've found a few 150/60 and 160/60 but havent' been able to locate any tires in those sizes with '50' sidewalls.
It Would be great if there's a way to lower it a couple of inches but so far I can't locate any lowering links for pre-98 Kat. I don't want to throw the current tires away because it has less than 1000 miles on it and I don't want to spend money on a set of lower profile tires if I can help it.
Any help with locating a pair of lowering links or showing me how to lower the bike a couple of inches without swapping tires would be greatly appreciated...and yes, I did the the search already but can't find lowering links for pre-98 Kats.
TIA,
