yeah, I'm barely touching down on the balls of my feet on my r6, but a friend of mine who's ridden another r6 that's been lowered says the ride is a little rougher than my r6 with the untouched suspension.

I wanted to lower the suspension, but the mechanics say they could only lower it by a few milimeters, so it wouln't have made much of a difference anyway.

They recommended shaving the seat down, which I would have done, but I was too lazy to give the guy a call. My dealer recommended him. There's some guy in Orange County that'll do it for cheap. I have the phone number to the guy somewhere...

Found the number to the place that'll shave your seat down for you so you don't have to mess with your suspension. I never actually had it done, but the yamaha dealer that I bought my bike from recommends them, and says they do a real professional job, and you can't tell the difference (in looks).

The place is called Rick's Custom Seats. 714 962 3018. The address is in Huntington Beach, California, which is in or around Orange County.
