Can S4 Spec III be lowered?

[skateboy]

for fork, cannot do much. rear shock, can consider changing to height adjustable type. if i didn't remember wrongly, gazi got 1 model which is height adjustable. can try sourcing for that one. most shock is rebound n preload adjustable.

 

if really cannot find, the last solution is to find a way herself to suit the ride.

IMO, not say for better corner or say more stable..

 

by lowering the fork will improve the handling not only during corners, on straights also.. becuz you are literally lowering the CG of your bike..

in physics, we learn lower CG means more stability..

 

it's also the reason why sportsbikes have short forks than road bikes..

just my 2cents..

 

oic thanks alot btw normally plp lower by how much huh for super 4 spec3??

lowering of fork really depends on rider... certain rider likes it low cuz ezier to contol while like me i prefer stock setting... well down fork will cause yr fork seal to break faster and in certain cases, chain n sprocket wear out faster... nt really sure hw it affects though but seen some cases like tat b4... the frnt fork aduster mite help abit to lower it down wifout down fork... for de rear adjut to lowest rebound... n for de rider, bwear high soles shoe... hehe... lan lan for de rider if de rider still wans to ride a superfour, have to bear wif the ht prob... but ive seen 1 girl quite short riding a fz6 n she is tiptoeing on 1 leg to stop n to move the bike forward at customs...

when lower ur front fork .... remember u have to do settings for it .. ie change to a thicker fork oil ratings .... change the springs .... bikelab maybe do this ....

 

n yes .... maybe with the handle bar clamp install it will look a bit weird ... but something just have 2 be sacrifice ....

i agree that if lower S4 somemore, header will kena buah if meet hump that is v. high

best bet is to lower the subframe that supports the seat by cutting short the bar that connected to it. that is what most pro motocrossers do. i dunno with super 4, but juz an opinion....
