@AltRiderLLC Yes, I bought the part from you guys. Your explanation makes installation oh so simple. Thanx.

Awesome product, well thought out. Just installed one on my 16. Moved the forks up 7mm. Handling is same as before. Love it. Much more manageable in slow tight terrain. Thank you Altrider

Are you talking about the adjustments to the front suspension? We do go over the basics of it in the video

With the rear suspension height changing, you would have to do a chain adjustment as well correct?

@AltRiderLLC

The change is so negligible you don't need to worry about it. You're not changing the length any, just moving it up or down a small amount

Will this fit my 2022 Africa Twin DCT Adv Sports with electronic suspension. Thx.

The maximum lowering our link offers is 1 in (25mm). You definitely don't need to be tall to ride an Africa Twin, lots of shorter people do, just takes a bit of confidence and the willingness to learn.

After installing the lowering kit .is this reduce the ground clearance ??? Please please reply

@AltRiderLLC

Жыл бұрын

Yes, when you lower you seat height, you also lower your ground clearance. This is why we include options to raise your seat height. It can depend on the type of riding you are doing, but as you gain confidence (even as a shorter person) you can slowly step up your seat height to gain more ground clearance.

Hello, how does the handling of the motorcycle change when it is lowered? I'm talking about subjective feelings, for example when handling on the spot, when riding at lower speeds, when riding in a sharp turn...Lowering the bike will reduce the centre of gravity, theoretically we should be able to handle the bike better in turns and also when handling on the spot. How is it in reality? marian🙃

Ya, lowering the bike will increases your confidence in a few ways. One can touch the ground easier, but also the lower center of gravity makes the bike feel easier to manipulate. Just like everything in life, it does come as a compromise. When in significant off-road situations your lowered ground clearance can be an issue. This was the inspiration for our innovation. We make it easy to change the height of your bike - lower it or raise depending on your needs. It can even be a great training aid. Thanks for your support 👍

Im 5'7, can i be flat footed to the lowest seat height of lowering link plus seat adjustment ? Pls reply...

@AltRiderLLC

11 ай бұрын

We can't possibly answer that definitively, there are too many variables. Your height, inseam, body shape, and posture all play into the answer. However, you can estimate based off Jeremy. Jeremy is 5'10" with a 31 in inseam and he is able to get very close to flat footed with a 19mm rise. There is a total of 34 mm difference (1.3 in) between the lowest setting and highest setting. Since he is very close to flat footed at the highest setting, you can estimate a rough feeling of what it might be 1.3 inches lower at the lowest setting of 25mm

In this video is the low seat installed or just the standard seat?

Will the motorcycle be able to stand easily on the center stand when the chassis is lowered? Will the stand need to be shortened after installing this kit?😕😕😕😕

@AltRiderLLC

8 ай бұрын

No need to shorten the center stand. It will take more effort to put the bike on the center stand though. We're working on a aluminum center stand for the Africa Twin and our center stand is easy to put the bike up on it. Even with our T7 lowered it was a snap to get it up on our center stand.

@@AltRiderLLC I get that thanls for the feedback! Keep up the great work !

I bought one of these. The manufacturing quality looks VERY nice. I'm trying to determine how to interpret the markings on the inserts. In the video, you show putting the 2 small circles forward, then using the REAR bolt holes in order to lower the bike 25 mm. But looking at my inserts, there is NO indication that the rear holes result in 25mm lower! There ARE markings on the inserts indicating the 4 available heights, but the rear hole is NOT labeled -25mm. I know I can just examine the position that the bike's wheel is at using each of the insert positions (via trial and error), but that rather defeats the purpose of having the +/- markings on the inserts. I just don't see a way to visually examine the inserts and determine which way they should be used, without just resorting to trial and error at install time. Am I NUTS?

We are reviewing if we can communicate this more effectively, and clearly we need to… The easiest way is to read the graphic displayed at 5:10 - 5:37 the same graphic is on the product page as well. But there is a legend etched into the inserts also. Look at the inserts and the side that shows 2 dots has +6mm / -25mm. So this means when you line up the 2 dots on the insert with the hash mark on the link the first number is what the front hole on the insert will do, and the second number is what the rear hole will do.

So this means when you line up the 2 dots on the insert with the hash mark on the link, the first number is what the front hole on the insert will do, and the second number is what the rear hole will do." That sentence is all I needed, that clarifies things just fine! Here is where I got confused initially (and why I asked the question): If you look at the video at 5:39, looking at the insert on the right side of the picture, it shows the 2 dots on the left (which would align with the hash mark on the link), and etched on the insert is "+19mm / -12mm". I (erroneously) interpreted that to mean that the front hole was for +19mm and the rear hole was for -12mm. Again, thanks for the clarification! Maybe the descriptive sentence is somewhere in the instructions, but I just couldn't see it.

Further explanation of my confusion: I (erroneously) interpreted the etchings on the inserts to be "positional labels on the holes". You mean the etchings to be "general instructions for how to orient the inserts."

@@AltRiderLLC Here is a suggestion that would have probably eliminated my initial confusion: In the video at 5:39, the insert on the left shows the 2 etched dots next to the -25mm text. If the 2 dots were next to the +6mm instead, then it would have been clearer that when the 2 dots match the hash mark on the link, then the left/front hole corresponds with "+6mm", and the right/rear hole corresponds with "-25mm". Of course, that is just how my silly brain sees things. Maybe we should ask a bunch of other folks what they think. Thanks for your great product support here!
