SEAT TOO HIGH? DREAD GETTING BOTH FEET FIRMLY ON THE GROUND AT A RED LIGHT?
The seat height on most bikes can be lowered by fitting shorter rear shock absorbers.
Seat too low? Rear tire rubbing the underside of the fender on your new custom?
Ikon can custom build you longer or shorter suspension units. Kawasaki swing arm in a Yamaha frame? No problem. We can custom build shocks to fit even the most obscure applications. Send us some basic details of what you require starting with the length of shock. Measure from the center of the upper mount to the center of the lower mount.
A few points to consider when fitting longer or shorter shocks to your bike:
- If you fit shorter shocks to lower the seat height, it will require more effort to pull your bike onto it’s center stand
- The angle of your bike on it’s side (kick) stand will change
- The positioning of your headlight will change
- Frame geometry will change and may result in poor handling characteristics
