lol way too short brother

lol yea its pretty sad... im 6 ft tall and its not working out for me at all... my 6'5 bro sat on it and it looked like he was on one of them pocket bikes.you know if there is any way to raise it without new parts?

[cintidude04]

I know some people use adjustable lowering links. but if the po used non adjusable links then you'll need to find stock. I would send ya the set off my parts bike, but they are non adjustable 2" drop as well

its ok ill find a stock one, thnx thou. kinda want the rear to be higher cuz im rly not into the lowering cuz than i cant sit comfortably.

ne-oublie on here custom makes links to whatever drop you want. The install isnt too bad. I think rok_stars_bars did a write up on here on the install too on his kat.

I msged him and he said he wasn't doing them anymore. Don't recall if he wasn't doing them entirely or just for the pre's

Lowering suggestion

Being short of inseam, I've lowered many a bike and the best way is to put spacers under the fork damping spring tubes. It looks original and works super perfectly. Dog bones for the rear. A 1- 1.5" drop equal at both ends won't upset handling. If anyone needs a tutorial on the prcedure let me know. Repalcing the fork seals makes the effort all the more woth while.

[cintidude04]

Not that I am interested (I'd rather raise my tail end), but you could always write a 'how to' and put it in the how to section.

Not sure what you mean but I can't think of how that would work on a Kat..

if anyone has a decent solution to drop a 97 kat please let me know...post's are easier to find. It'll be the 2nd year that my gf won't ride her bike if I can't find a solution

[Vlad]

just find the lowering links or dogbones or w.e u call them
