Question Handeling with a lowered 54?

Hey all, I lowered my 54; it was my first RR, to get comfortable. I know it affects the handeling a bit, but how much? I'm raising it back to stock height this winter since I'm pretty confidant in it now. A friend of mine said it really affected its turn in ability, said you had to force it in a bit and...well he felt close to the ground...lol. My question is what else will change when I do this? It's -1 +2 on sprockets, will this affect how quick it comes up? She comes up pretty quick as is. I will obviously take her slow and try her out a bit as I did when I got her, but what should I expect?

Thanks all,

Wildcard

Before lowering mine 1 in the rear the bike picked up so easily it was almost scary. By lowering it mine stays on the ground unless I force it to come up. I didn't feel to much difference in the handling or cornering. Still flyin thru the twisties.
