If you are on the toe, leave it. DO NOT LOWER. I have mine lowered 2 inches or so and if you look at my bike, it is very low. Look at how my handle bar is very close to the cowl, how my pipe is very close to the tire. I am only 4'11" and a female and if I can ride it with ballerina stance, you can do that too. Don't be a wimp.

You are guy and you will ride more aggressively than me. You will be very uncomfortable with 2 inch lowered bike

nothing special yet, just an 08 stock CBR. plant to possibly lower it and inch or 2, rear fender eliminator, maybe change the front lights. is it worth lowering a bike? I don't feel unsafe on this one but i am on my toes when stopped.

Great looking bike!!
