Ive been searching for this a good amount, but I really didnt find the exact answer I was looking for. I recently bought a 2006 TW, and I want to lower it a little bit. I am 5'2", 130 lbs with about a 28" inseam. Right now I can tippy toe on both sides of the bike, but I would feel a little more comfortable if I can touch with atleast the balls of my feet.
I was reading about drilling a hole in the swingarm and about replacing the shock with one from a Vstar 1100.
I have a couple questions about this for anyone who has done these mods.
- How much does this lower the bike?
- Does this still leave adequate suspension travel?
- Will a V-Star 650 shock work as well?
- Are there any other ways to slightly lower the bike that I am missing?
