Yes Pleiades, you're so right.
Also the lowered bike does not nearly look as sexy as the standard height bike with the tail in the air !
The max lowering solution with these pipes seem to be about 1" and setting the suspension stiffer. I'll do that over the weekend.

Fortunately the bike in Aus has a single Barrett pipe and stiff suspension, so it will be interesting to see the effect of the different lowering links on that bike.
