Default Fork Lowers

Question, I lowered my front end last year but now want to black out the lowers. I found a pair that are cheaper than if I had them done myself. If I put new lowers on will I have to re-install lowering kit ??

Not sure what type of lowering kit you have installed but even with Mono tube or lowering springs you will have to pull them out and take the entire slide the down tube off the triple trees to get the lowers off while your in there plan to change your fork seals they are cheap and easy do to with all the right tools.
