I save all the clowns trouble up front Paco
let the tyres down'
park in a wheel rut
or send it through a car crusher.



Now seriously remove the seat and have a quality upholsterer quote you on a rebuild with lower foam of an exceptable density so that you won't feel the seat base.
I may not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it.

Wouldn't be surprised if there isn't a lowering link available for the back end

They make lowering links you can find them on eBay I'd put a link up but the bloody tablet won't let me or I'm to dumb to figure it out, l have a drz400 my second one its a 2008 love spankin the KTM/WR boys with it(allthough I'm getting a bit fat and old though these days), it as much as I need in the bush.
