Default 95 900rr un-lowering

I have a 95 900rr that has got to be lowered lower that it should be. i checked the link to see if it was adjustable but it only has one setting. Is there another method of lowering this bike that i'm not noticing. I want to put it back up to its normal hight because it doesn't seem to handle like it should. i think the back is lowered too much in comparison to the front, causing the bars to want to turn more than normal in corners and feeling very akward. any tips will help. thanks.

james.

James,
Is there more than 1 set of holes in the triangle? That is the only other way I know to lower it unless they backed the spring preload down or the spring is sagging

there are not extra holes in the plates and i'm sure its not just a case of a sagging suspension. is it possible to flip the plate backwards... i don't know if that makes sense i don't have the bike here to look at. from the diagram i am looking at i don't think it makes sense. all i know is this bike is slammed.

Yeah, that is definitely low. I thought the same thing as Hondas Rule about the extra holes in the triangles. I see though, that they make lowering triangles that don't have the extra holes too, so you may have those on there. I would try turning the plate around to see if that does it. If not you could pick up some stock suspension parts off of eBay and put them on.
