its lowered in front, I used the progressive drop in lowering kit. The rear of the bike is an issue, I dont want to use the cheap lowering kit, and the good ones are too expensive right now.

The bolts are not plug and play. You gotta install em' ride it, adjust em' ride it, adjust ride. The magic is there. It just takes time. Less time for me than it takes to hustle up $1500.00 for an air ride system that will eventually leak or fail.....Never heard of a lowering bolt leaking.
On the flip side I kinda dig the old school Evil Knievel ready to jump Ceasers Palace and a row of Busses look on the *** of your bike. I can see why lowering it right away isnt a biggie.
Good job BTW....

+1 on what Chaz said. I lowered mine with bolts and after adjusting the preload no issues at all other than scraping my floorboards more than before.
I like your bars they look good especially the contrast with the light cables. Now just get rid of the idle cable and you would be surprised what a difference that makes in the clean up dept.
