Well it isn't a road test but a quick static check.

Bike is lowered 30mm in the rear with Classic Hagons, and lowered about 20mm in the front by sliding the fork tubes up.

Please forgive picture quality, it was dark outside, I have poor lighting in the garage, and a relatively inexperienced photographer. So much for the disclaimers.

Here's bike on the side stand. Still has a bit of a lean and doesn't feel like it would topple, assuming you are on level ground. In stead of cutting and welding I would think one could put a slight bend in it to give the bike more lean without it sticking out too far when up.




Here's bike leaning over with pegs about 30-40mm from touching the ground. The center stand was actually farther from touching and would not touch without grinding the pegs first.
