    Will lowering blocks work on 1000L?

    I was worried about clearance between the rear shock and the disc brake caliber.

      Aren't you making the forward controls? I would think fabing some up would be much cheaper and easier.

                    Hey tracy did you lower the front also. I'm thinking of just lowering the rear giving it a little rake in the front.

                      Just a little, about 3/4" so the bike sits more level from front to back.

                          I See Your Bike, But Still Cant Tell Where The Lowering Blocks Are.are They Where The Shocks Mount At The Top Or Something?

                            Ron, it's down on the bottom of the shock, moving the low side rearward a bit, therefore lowering the bike. Seems to me it won't work on my bike though since the shock mounts to the diff on the left side.
