RE: lowering 05 rkc
Lowered my RKC both front and back...didn't really notice any different handling, maybe it doesn't absorb the bumps quite as good as stock though, but I notice only a slight difference. I have an easier time swinging my leg over the seat and dismounting, can touch the pavement flat footed, it's easier to back up.....no regrets.

RE: lowering 05 rkc
I have a 2004 RK, running 21" front and 18" rear.
Lowered front 1 1/4 and rear 1 inch, bike rides great, anymore than 1.5 and you will start feeling a change in ride...and yes corneringdoesget rough as far as scraping floorboards, but overall control is better as well as looks
With the 21 & 18 even though its lowered cornering for me is fine
