RIRAM-
Nice RKC. I rented an 07 RKC that color. Black is my favorite, but I had a great day on that bike, and really started to appreciate that color. Your bike looks nice...

actually I did not - it's not necessary, but I would have if there was an easy kit - mine is a 1998 and they changed the forks in 2004 - 2008 and the moco sells a front fork lowering kit for them but I haven't found one for my old style forks

Nice bikes
I like this thread. I look at all the different options and haven't seen one that I didn't like. Here's a couple of mine. By the way i posted a while ago on I needed a way to make my white walls more yellow. Someone posted to try coffee. I did and it seemed to work a little.

I have a '98 as well. Progressive has a drop in fork spring set to lower the front. I think yhey fit the '98.

The trouble with trying to match whitewalls to birch white is that the whitewalls are too white when new and too brown when they age. For myself, I try to stay with the too new look (scrub with magic eraser). In bright sunshine, I'm the only one who notices the whitewalls are too white.
