1998 Lowrider, old screeming eagle slip ons.
It's time for new shocks/springs. Currently stock height, considering dropping either front only 1.5-2"....or both front 1.5-2, and rear 1".
The only reason for dropping is looks-she handles fine at stock. any clearance issues with the drops mentioned above? any changes to handling?

A few things you may experience:
Bike may sit too upright on kickstand
Bottom of frame may not clear speedbumps or may scrape loading on trailer
Pegs and/or exhaust may scape during cornering
Since travel of shocks will be shortened, ride may be stiffer
Upper belt guard may be struck by fender on extreme bumps
Drive belt may need to be adjusted to make up for new position of swingarm
07 DWG Went 1.5 in rear and front. The only problem so far is the speed bumps watch them. First time I hit one Feels like the bottom of the bike comes off.
