Default Question about lowering..

I have heard of people lowering their bikes. Is that just for seat height issues or is there something else to it. Especially according to CBR 600.

Yep thats why I lowered mine....I know people also do it for drag racing since obviously the lower center of gravity results in higher speeds!

Lowering the bike is usually for people with height issues

Some idiots do it for looks, but then it totally messes up the handling of the bike since you're changing the center of gravity
