Default Night Train lowered and new risers (pics)

Well, after some great advice from Baron and some others here, I finaly dropped the Train. I scored a new-in-the-box "Burnout" kit of Craig's list for $25. Kudos for this kit to anyone interested in it. Easy install and adjustment. I got the risers of ebay.....

One issue... when I adjusted the pre-load on my shocks, they would only turn so far. It helped a little, but the tech at the stealership said that my shocks are screwed up, I should be able to crank them down untill there is no travel at all. New ones on order. Anyone else have that happen?

that drop kit looks fantastic, not a huge fan of those risers, but love the look of the slam.

Looks great, love the blacked out spokes. Now I think you need to maybe look into some two piece rotors with blacked out centers. Would "fit" the overall stealth black out look better than the stockers do.

Nice, very nice, got mine slammed to about the same height...been thinkin' 8" straight risers for mine, but havin' trouble finding just simple clean ones like those? How's the reach and feel? Any chance the seller on ebay has any more of those puppies around?

Thanks all for the compliments!

Citoriplus - Thanks. I painted the front wheel myself. I agree about the rotors, but I am waiting 'till I get my new wheels. I want to get the new "Shadow Series" Legend wheels from Extreme Machine so I'll get the matching rotors and pully with them. I just painted the front wheel as a temporary fix.

*NIGHT TRAIN* - Reach and feel are great! The added height lets me sit up moreinstead ofleaning forward so much. The seller'sebay name was eljaymack.Hit him up, maybe he has more or can point you in the right direction.
