Default RE: part # for rocker lowering kit

I had my bike lowered this week and used a "Slam Kit" from Arlen Ness, part no. 17-100, $69.95+ship. Drops the bike up to 2". Definitely one of the best things I have done to the bike. That big gap between the seat and the fender is almost gone!!! However, you need to be much more careful when setting up the passenger seat on the Rocker C because the chrome arms could come into contact with the fender as you move them into position. There may also be an issue with the weight of a second rider flexing that swing arm/fender more than normal which could make the fender contact the back of the seat.Time will tell as more Rocker owners put some miles on this setup.
