KLE lowering kit
Hi,
You can find what you look for at: Hyperpro | Suspension Technology Hyperpro is a brand which deals with suspension kits and manufactures lowering and rising kits for suspensions of many motorcycles. Look in the "importers" page to see if you can get it at your location. Regards Jules

Hi,
Why need to lower KLE? It can be made from it's rear shock adjustment, but you loose only few inches. Also keep in mind that if you lower the rear then you have to lower the front if you don't want to ride only in wheelie. Also you can buy aftermarket parts because Kawa doesn't provide a wide range of accesories for mods. If you have pics with such a mod ..... can be interesting

The bike may sit more upright by lowering it. That is the last thing that it needs.

1" lower KLE seat?
Ash & Deb--
How did they lower the seat 1"? Do you know? That would be enough for me to get my feet flat on the ground.

The usual routine is to remove 1" of foam from the seat and replace the original cover. A random search on the net shows a few guys doing this professionally. e.g. Digger Custom Motorcycle Seats seat lowering motorcycle - Ask.com UK Web Search

Do you know the sizes of the original KLE part from this link:
http://adi.roiban.ro/kle-manual/cras...ZUGSTREBEN.jpg I just bought a second hand kle, the rear shock absorber is on the 2nd position but it very high. I want to know if the previous owner has replaced that part to have a taller bike. If I set the rear shock aboserver to possition 5 will I have a lower or taller bike? Many thanks!

I have the standard part but the front for air pressure was changes.
I release all air from the front fork and not it is much lower. Now I have to find out how to adjust the front fork air presure.
