I used that same kit on my bike. Gave me about 1.5" drop in the rear.
Here is a before and after shot.

Thanks mate...looks good..just bought me one, guess not much to lose if it dont work out.. cheers.

 

Interesting. Haven't heard of this before.

 

Kit works great! had some trouble with my fat fingers getting the 1/2 moon parts attached but once I got it ... Wow! Got rid of that "dirt bike" look of the rear fender.

 

This is a great kit. Easy to instal and excellent custom service too.

 

Might want to crank up the pre-load on the shock. Mine is down about an 1 1/4 or so with the SE shock. Whatever the distance you loose gets you that much closer to the bump stop. My bike with 200lbs on it now hits the stop hard on a bridge entrance on the interstate were it did not beore I ran the SE shocks. Both sets of shocks where set with no pre-load for one up driver only.

 

Yep I was going to mention that part of the install. I de-greased the half moons real good and the shaft then used hair spray to stick the upper half to the shaft so I could get the screws in.

 

I got to admit, the kit looks simple. I just installed lowering bolts today. Had I not been such a cheap a$$, I might have bit on these. But with lowering bolts only costing 15 bucks delivered, they were hard to pass up. Live and learn I guess.

 

How does this kit ride?
