Good Morning All !!!
ok...as soon as my bike showed up...(bought from a place in South Dakota)... I had already purchased a number of parts for her. My only compaint, so far lol, is the ride height. I am 5'8" tall...and I am on tippy toes at a stop. Soooo....I have some factory, and aftermarket parts that came off.
1- Factory Saddle
2- Factory Driver Backrest
3- Factory Driver Backrest Bracket
4- Kuriaken Thingamajig Handlebar Bracket ( looks like it was for a Garmin Nav)
5- Very Dark Low Windscreen ( could not find a name on it)
6- Hopnel Bottom of The Tank Bra ???

My hope is, to be able to trade for, or offset the cost of, an adjutable lowering Link from Witchdoctors. Their website says they have a few left. I would be more than happy to send some photos. Here is my e-mail....

I check it often...and I am located in Atlanta.

Can you post a pic of the windshield?

Have you checked the air pressure in the shock? I'm 5'4 and ride stock height for cornering .

Yes I did...when I took possession of her, it was 0...(had been sitting for some time)...I put 35lbs. in it

Dot you know how tall it is.? I have a 11'' I may trade with you if it's shorter.

1st put some boots on.
2nd that fancy seat is wider costing you some reach.
3rd try 20-25 lbs in the shock

I'll drag hard parts 2up @35lbs but I can almost get both heels on the ground. I leave the air the same for spirited solo riding.

I'm running a stock heated XCT seat.

If you get it let me know how it works. I have the same set up and have had problems removing it once installed.

If you have your seat narrowed 1" on each side you'll be able to stand flat footed and still be comfy. Any competent upholstery shop can do it.

Yes, before you sell the oem CCT seat, install it and see how it improves your stance when stopped.

The lower link will solve your issue. You can keep the stock saddle but if you can find a Magnum saddle all the better. Why you want to get rid of the shield ? Looks good.

It was the same height, with the stock seat....and even with my riding boots...it is a bit to high.

It is 9" tall.

I bought a Madstad.

The first time I rode it, the stock seat was on it....was too high for me then.
