[QUOTE="kerry, post: 152963, member: 3981"] One extra tip perhaps to note, If you are short like me you can fit an Avo rear coil over, safes weight and improves ride and can lower the seat height well over an inch, but still gives greater travel than the original, then you may want to lower the centre stand too, as the back wheel will then be higher of the ground. If you do lower the stand it make it a little higher on the right so in operation it very slightly leans toward you on the left, makes it ever unlikely to fall over as you are in better control particularly with your slightly wider bars too. These Princes give a really nice ride once you get used to the screen. At 5ft 7" on mine I can sit with both feet on the ground. [/QUOTE]
