Triangle lowering kit

A motorcycle lowering kit is a set of parts designed to lower the riding height of a motorcycle, which can be useful for bikers who have a shorter waist or who wish to have more stability on the ground when the motorcycle is stationary. These kits are often used to reduce saddle height, thus facilitating access to the ground.

Lowering kits can include various components depending on the specific model of motorcycle, but here are some common items that can be found in these kits:

Suspension links: These usually replace the original suspension links and modify the suspension geometry, reducing the height of the motorcycle.

Shorter fork stems: For bikes with telescopic front forks, shorter fork stems can be included to lower the front of the bike.

Shock absorber spacers: These can be used to adjust the height of the rear shock absorber.

Side stand extensions: To compensate for reduced height and maintain stability when parked.

Mounting instructions and hardware: Kits usually include detailed instructions on how to install them, as well as all the necessary hardware.

It's important to note that lowering the motorcycle can influence geometry and riding behavior. It can also affect ground clearance and handling, particularly when cornering. Before installing a lowering kit, it is advisable to consider these aspects and ensure that the modification is appropriate for the type of riding envisaged.

It is also advisable to have a lowering kit installed by a professional, or to follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully, to avoid potential safety problems. Finally, it may be a good idea to consult the motorcycle owner's manual or contact the manufacturer for advice specific to your model.
