Excuse my ignorance, but what are you achieving by doing this?
I've yet to see a decent JE piston.  All the ones that have come through my door are big heavy clunky items.

To lower the front end more . With a dry sump pan I had more to lower the bike to have 3" groung clearance but the wheel would hit the bottom of the triple first . Some of the prostreet busa's are done the same for the same reason .

OK thanks.

I really do not have any experience with lowering bikes for drag racing. I have done a lot of suspension work, but it has been all road racing type stuff.

I am assuming for a drag racing only application you would not need a lot of suspension travel. Is this correct?

Re: Messing around , short necking my 1K frame , added a front rack
« Reply #14 on: January 06, 2008, 08:40:57 PM »
Made a couple new things . Moved body work ahead , made rack for the Motec , battery mounts and co2 bottle holder . The stay has a spot for the ams 1000 and the plate is for a MXL Strada dash . I went from the origional 12 battery to 2 7's . Just a bit more cranking amps and way smaller to fit in .
