Curious, was it hard to lower your bike? I want to do the same thing to my F3.

I did a lowering link in the rear, (about $60, got it from a CBR forum member), and just slid the forks up into the triple tree 1 3/4". I did that cuz I drag race a fair bit, but I'm getting a strap and taking the front back up a bit, it bottoms the forks slightly sometimes if I'm going just the right speed and hit a transition from the road to a parking lot. The color is a Honda car color, and it's Midnight Blue Pearl. I originally intended to have some airbrush work done to make it look like it was struck by lightning and a few stars here and there, but my friend Silvio that did the paint wants to do some "true flame" after he practices on my helmet and gets the technique perfect. I plan to get a silver carbon fiber OE style CBR sticker set once the graphics are done, may not use all of them, but don't want to leave any doubt what it is, I'm proud of my CBR,

I like it, quite a bit. I dislike the use of lowering straps for anything. to me, they have more negative effects than positives.
