no diff from the 929 you bought

 

Sure it is... the parts I would strip off of it are more expensive than the ones I got.

Smartass. If I could buy that bike for $2300 I'd buy it up too. It would also be in my garage on stands getting stripped and pictures would be on here detailing my progress of ridding the bike of it's unfortunate cancer.

Alas, some fruit is probably looking to get $15K+ for that parts bike. AND THERE AREN"T EVEN ANY FRAME SLIDERS! Could you imagine? Like it or, it's a lot of work - and to knot even put frame sliders on it... tsk tsk.

That bike is also in better condition as it was obviously never ran hard... HAHAHA pwn't teh n00|3!

In anycase I'm not saying I wouldn't take it - I'd just strip the **** outta that hunk and part dat bitch out.

CLEAN 929RR, 37 Original miles, never abused parts bike, must see! I don't even know if it runs, but make me an offer! For some reason that sidestand is welded into place but I'm sure we can cut that...

 

Im sure this bike handles just as well as a shorter wheel base bike and i doubt that tire effects its cornering at all!

ok thats should all i have to post about this

 

you can lower the bike as much as 1.5 inches,i would not go but 1 inch at best,the trick is to adjust the rear
and modify the fork internals-
find a good suspension builder-have them reduce the dampening cartridge 1/2 inch(you the do the rest
by adjusting the forks within the triples)-then for the rear,use a link similar to this:

you wont lose any handling,you will gain handling!!!do it right!!!!

also-if you are going to lower the bike,you might give some thoughts to using adjustable
rear sets

im not a fan of that particular style for the simple fact that you have to spin it around to get it to the desired length then use the locking nuts(locking nuts) to hold it to that desired position.

vs

just removing the bolt and chosing one of the traditional heights already built in to the PPM one

plus when i look at it, i keep seeing a bolt snapping in my mind

i think the PPM is cheaper but dont get me lying.

 

so neways! back to my original question! BigNibb... you went with the lowering link, and didnt notice too much as far as handling goes? Did you also lower the front by just adjusting the forks?

 

Aww, man that's a horrible thought! I'm lit right now so I kinda was, "experiencing," that happen. Terrible!

And as far as that bike not changing the handling... naww, it's really not too much. You get used to it in like a week or two then you'll be rippin' up the parkways...

 

What about some of these dog bones on ebay??? any comments on those?
