Welcome from Florida. BTW, I don't know how much you need to lower your seat, or how much you plan to spend, but there are seats that will put you a little closer to the ground, check with your dealer or a company like Mustang. Also Fatbaggers.com has a rather pricey conversion that will lower you 3", you can also look into doing progessive suspension monotubes 2" under up front along with maybe one of there 9 series shocks in the rear, that will give you a much better ride, and lower the bike. Go to the suspension and search the threads, or start a new one, you will get plenty of information.
