Lowering kit for ex

Anybody ever put one of these on? I'm thinking of lowering the front of my ex to get more distance on my stoppies.

I would stiffen your shocks. A lowering kit would make your shocks have sag and they would be moving up and down on you while trying to do so. You can adjust the stock fronts with a shock tool or a hammer and screw driver if you don't have one. Could buy new springs for it also.

Depends on the kit you want some don't leave any sag and are for slat track,,,, but i'd just crank them tighter like he said

I'd go hard on the shocks, and spend the money on street fronts like hoosiers or something. Better roll on the pavement. Then steel braided brake lines. Then if you really wanna get silly, a stearing stablizer. Just my opion.

Yeah... what dipshit said.... plus a master cyclinder and lever from a street bike. Most crotch rockets have adjustable levers that would work great with the steel braided lines. You can find them used at most bike shops. Just my
