Longer fork tubes?
Can you add 2" longer fork tubes to a 2012 WG with out changing hoses and such?
Might be the new seat or the one inch over shocks, but the bike seems to be a bit lower in front, thinking a bit longer tubes might cure that.
I like the ground clearance so I'd rather not lower the back.
TIA

Appears it's the seat, got the wife to take a picture with me sitting on it and the bike is level, gonna go back to the stock seat and see what happens.
I do like longer front ends, but not so sure at 64 I want to change the handling all that much, was thinking 2" wouldn't cause to much change...but not sure.
Thanks all.
