lets see your lowered vmax's

[Noxx72]

FWIW, I want an inch back when I move up to 440's.

Went on a long canyone loop today and did some serious disservice to my pipes.

Here's Redbone lowered 2" via Progressive fork springs in the front and stock rear suspenders.

 

[Vinmax]

Lowered 1/2 on back side with Progressive 418's, and 1/2 on front side with forks up in triple trees. Pegs are rearsets for increased clearance and comfort but exhaust is stock yet still has decent clearance.

what rotor in the rear are you running? i assume its not stock sized...

 

[odieoh24]

cant say for sure how much lower than stock it is as it sits right now. i had to cut out everything between the foot and the spring catch on the stand to get it to lean to the left. modified gsxr 1000 rear wheel with 190/50/17, stock length ohlins, 05 R1 front end with otec triples.

Lowered rear, 17" rims and 11" progressive shocks. Lowered front 2" with lowering spring (not blocks) and 17" rim.

Headers and footpegs take a beating with this setup.

Nice bike but, you gotta lose that tail light. I finally got rid of mine, it just looks meaner that way.

[Vinmax]

Gamorg02, sorry for taking so long to get back to ya,,,,,,,,,,, but anyway the rear rotor is a Braking Brake Systems rotor. Got it for looks mostly, but it is lighter than the original.

[Mr. Bill]

Lowered 2" in the front with progressive lowering spring kit. Rear lowered 1.5" with progressive 420's.
The SportMax seat drops my back side another 2". Now my Vmax is a low rider for sure. I have not touched bottom yet but I do watch myself.

Vinnie

is it completely bolt on?

 

[Vinmax]

Yeah, the rotor is a complete bolt on for the stock wheel. I even used the stock cap head bolts from the original rotor.

Who makes those frame braces? And do they reuire welding?

Who makes those frame braces? And do they reuire welding?

i got them from exactrep in the u.k. little over $300 with the shipping. no they require no welding and if they send everything needed for the install (bolts, spacers, and nuts) they take less than an hour to install. i was missing 2 bolts, 2 different nylock nuts and 1 aluminum spacer. they sent the nuts and bolts but i didnt even realize they shorted me the spacer till i installed everything. it was the last bolt of 12 i installed! shipping time was about 3-4 days so not a problem, but i did have to wait about two weeks for some of the parts i ordered specificaly the frame braces.

i bought a pair off of odieoh and and can vouch, as long as u have the hardware they are easy to install and actually increase th ehandling of the bike. i love the look as well!

 

[ghostntheshell]

[Drew85]

Heres my '85. I put 11" progressives on the back and slid the forks up some.

 

[aj660]

Lowest VMax I have ever seen.

I really like this look. Does anybody know what wheels these are?
