Mine was lowered by inverting the swing arm. You will need to adust the bags slightly. This one was built 6 years ago and there have no problems. It did make the ride rougher than&nbsp\\;an over the arm setup but you are sacrificing the travel and ride for looks. This year I went up one weight on my fork and shock and it improved the ride considerably.&nbsp\\;

Lowered mine with a kit that offset the shock to the rear, no prob with the bags. I can't remember who made the kit, sorry.
